Project partners: Atium AB, Sweden Recycling AB
Grant: SEK 600,000
Project duration: 2025-11-03 to 2026-11-02
Contact person: Johan Björkquist, Atium AB
Purpose and objectives
The aim is to enable a broad introduction of Atium’s ion exchange resins in dentistry and thereby reduce mercury emissions to water. The goal is to verify the function, customer benefit and value chain through field tests at clinics together with Sweden Recycling AB and to develop a commercialization plan for launch on the Swedish market.
Expected results and impacts
The project is expected to result in field-tested installations of Atium’s ion exchange resins at dental clinics, verified function and customer benefit, and a completed commercialization plan with value chain and business model. In the long term, this will result in reduced mercury emissions, improved environmental performance in dentistry and a competitive green technology offering from the Swedish market.
Planned approach and implementation
The project is carried out over one year together with Sweden Recycling and selected dental clinics. The work is divided into four work packages: project management and reporting, installation and field testing of the ion trap, verification of the value chain and customer acceptance, and business development and development of a commercialization plan.
