## About

Aurotect, based in the US, specializes in sustainable e-waste recycling by employing advanced electrochemical processes to extract precious metals, particularly gold, at high purity levels. Their innovative solutions promote environmental responsibility in resource recovery.Founded in 2023, Aurotect focuses on the extraction of gold from electronic waste using proprietary technology. The company has established its headquarters in the United States and has engaged in one funding deal as of August 11, 2025. The founder's background is currently unspecified, and there are no known subsidiaries or previous mergers involved in the formation of the company.Aurotect’s primary service revolves around the innovative extraction of precious metals, specifically gold, from electronic waste (e-waste) using advanced electrochemical processes. This technology is designed to recover 99.99% of gold at 24k quality for significantly reduced costs compared to traditional mining operations, providing a sustainable solution for e-waste recycling. The company’s approach allows for the processing of various waste streams and electronics with differing gold concentrations, facilitating comprehensive recycling without the need for prior assaying. Aurotect aims to serve a diverse client base, including electronic manufacturers, recycling facilities, and environmentally conscious investors across various geographical markets such as North America, Europe, and Asia. By redefining the relationship between humanity and gold, Aurotect addresses pressing issues of sustainability and resource efficiency in the mining and recycling sectors.Aurotect operates on a business-to-business (B2B) model, engaging primarily with industrial partners and e-waste recycling facilities to provide its gold extraction technology. Revenue is generated through licensing agreements, partnerships, and potential collaborations with firms seeking to integrate sustainable e-waste recycling practices into their operations. The transaction structure typically involves long-term contracts where Aurotect supplies its patented technology, ensuring clients can efficiently recover precious metals while adhering to environmental standards. Payment structures may include upfront fees for technology integration, followed by revenue-sharing agreements based on the volume of gold extracted using Aurotect’s processes. Specific pricing plans for the technology and services have not been disclosed, but the company’s focus on creating a financially viable model for e-waste recycling positions it favorably within the market.In August 2025, Aurotect raised an undisclosed amount of Seed funding from investor SOSV. The company plans to leverage this funding to enhance its technology and expand its product offerings, potentially launching new solutions for e-waste recycling in the near future. Aurotect also aims to penetrate additional markets, specifically targeting European and Asian regions by the end of 2026, thereby broadening its client base and operational footprint in the sustainable recycling industry.
