Emircan Uysal

I am a doctoral researcher in chemical engineering at KTH Royal Institute of Technology. I have a background in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, with a specialization in hydrometallurgy and extractive metallurgy.

My research focuses on the sustainable recovery of rare earth elements and other critical raw materials from primary and secondary resources. As part of the MSCA Doctoral Network CRITERIA, my PhD project focuses on the valorization of mining tailings and the development of efficient processes for the extraction, separation, and recovery of valuable metals. A particular focus of my research is the integration of leaching and crystallization-based separation for selective metal recovery.

My research interests include hydrometallurgy, solvometallurgy, crystallization, critical raw materials, metal recovery, recycling, and sustainable extractive metallurgy.
