From the lab to commercialization

Elemental

Innovation with global impact

Announcing: Elemental

Elemental, a technology services firm, commercializes the breakthrough inventions of Professor Donald Sadoway that include production of primary metal from critical minerals, carbon abatement, and new battery chemistries. The industrial world demands radical, rapid solutions that transform our relationship with energy. Donald Sadoway is leading a wave of innovation with extreme electrochemistry and the Elemental technologies represent solutions to the world’s most pressing problems.  

With over 50 years of technical innovation behind our company, Elemental offers a suite of new technologies to meet the needs of the metals and mining industries, organizations requiring stationary and mobile energy storage, and the industries seeking carbon abatement. Our solutions are smarter, more efficient and innovative than anything in the market.

Elemental is dedicated to taking world-changing invention from the lab to the marketplace. Our team at the Sadoway Laboratory is staffed with engineers and PhDs who work closely with Professor Sadoway to move his inventions forward and develop new, ground-breaking technologies.  Beyond our staff, we draw upon a network of technical experts, operations specialists, and consultants in global engineering project delivery. With our deep technical expertise and advisory services, we are positioned to provide support and solutions to our clients.

The Sadoway technologies

Moving innovation from the lab to commercialization

Donald Sadoway, PhD, a leading developer of battery technology, metallurgical processes, and carbon abatement innovation, seeks to move technologies from the lab to the marketplace. These technologies and technology platforms are available with clear IP, or IP linked to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology where many of these technologies were initially developed under the guidance of Donald Sadoway and his teams at Group Sadoway.

With the challenges of commercialization including funding, these technologies have not reached their potential in the marketplace. Now available for the defense and aerospace sectors, industrial and consumer markets, each one is a unique and specialized gamechanger offering tremendous commercial success.

We seek partners with foresight to recognize the potential for these technologies so they can effectively be brought to market. Each solution has been derisked in the lab, and several have a TRL, a technology rediness level of 8 out of 10. All offerings were developed to be cost effective and meet the economics of the marketplace. We look forward to work with those industries and sectors that aspire to commercial success, as well as profitable sustainability.

Innovation leading to high-value carbon credits

For entities seeking high-value carbon credits, the Sadoway technologies represent viable solutions:

High-Temperature Electrolysis processing of metals with low to no emissions to air, water and soil.
The Ambri Liquid Metal Battery for massive stationary storage.
• The Avanti battery for single home and small enterprise energy storage.
• The Carbon Zapper for removing C02 at the source, engineering leading to the highest value carbon credits.
