Sadoway breakthrough technologies are the gamechanger in metals extraction across the periodic table.
Technology for disruption.
Sadoway Incorporated delivers a novel, breakthrough technology that turns dirt into metal with the High-Temperature Electrolysis metallurgical process.
This technology, invented by Donald Sadoway while a professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is powered by a self-heating reactor and enables high-efficiency ore-to-metal conversion in one step with separation of refined mineral streams and recovery of secondary critical materials, leaving a minimal environmental footprint.
The Sadoway High-Temperature Electrolysis works on many elements across the periodic table. The process addresses the unique chemical requirements of each of the chosen minerals.

The US mining and metals market is undergoing a strategic reset. Executive Orders and federal policy directives are channeling billions to stimulate domestic mineral production, reducing reliance on adversaries, and reinforcing national security priorities.
Beyond policy, the U.S. is mobilizing strategic federal investments to reinforce the entire critical technology supply chain. The Department of Energy’s initiatives, together with key Defense programs, are advancing breakthrough technologies to secure mineral inputs while also spearheading production of the downstream systems they enable.
Major industry players have announced multi-billion dollar investments in magnet and battery factories across the U.S., signaling surging demand for critical minerals like antimony, gallium, titanium and others. These minerals, and many others, are well suited to metals extraction with High-Temperature Electrolysis.
With critical mineral and material supply chains at risk, there is a pressing market opportunity to support and grow U.S. based industry. The U.S. is encouraging domestic innovation to ensure a secure and self-sufficient supply chain of critical minerals and materials, presenting a prime opportunity for investment and industry growth.
A deep-rooted supply chain interdependence binds the U.S to China and Russia, particularly as the American defense sector depends on these critical materials, a partnership that's instrumental for both national security and tech advancement. The growing tensions cast a shadow over this vital sector. The threat of potential conflict stands to imperil the global supply chain with consequences that could ripple through economies and national security frameworks worldwide.
Building a safe a secure supply chain of critical minerals for defense and industry.
Reduces US reliance on adversaries for critical materials and secures domestic access to sources that are foundational to advanced defense systems.
Sadoway High-Temperature Electrolysis supports U.S. production of batteries, advanced propulsion, advanced technology and aligns with defense and commercial supply chains to deliver broad national resilience.
Many of the minerals that Sadoway Incorporated is extracting, like antimony, enable large-scale, long-duration batteries for grid stability, strengthening US leadership in the clean energy transition. The Sadoway technology also introduces green metallurgy and zero-waste processing tech, minimizing the environmental footprint compared to that of traditional practices.
Creates high-value American jobs across mining, processing, and advanced technology sectors, anchoring new industrial capacity in strategic US technologies.
