Aqua Metals Inc., McCarran, Nevada, has appointed Feng Han to the new role of vice president of licensing and pricing, expanding its organizational capabilities and helping to deliver the first AquaRefining licensing package to Clarios and other potential licensees on a global basis.

The company is commercializing its proprietary AquaRefining electrochemical lead recycling technology, which, unlike smelting, is a room-temperature, water-based process that emits less pollution, according to the company.

Han has more than 30 years of experience executing global business strategies inclusive of business development, market and opportunity assessment, licensing, product valuations and delivery to achieve sustainable business growth and create long term value. He joins Aqua Metals from X-Cutag Therapeutics Inc., where he was chief business officer driving global business strategy and licensing. Prior to that, Han spent more than 10 years at DuPont building the framework for China’s first biofuels business development plan resulting in a strategic partnership with a leading Chinese refinery partner, Aqua Metals notes in a press release announcing his appointment. Han relocated to Chicago to lead DuPont’s global licensing packages for cellulosic ethanol and then moved to Dupont’s headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware, to negotiate and sign the company’s initial process licenses and biocatalyst supply agreements.

“After seeing firsthand the maturity of the AquaRefining technologies, I knew that I could make a direct impact as the company executes on its growth plan to license these technologies on a global basis, beginning with delivering the world’s first licensing package to Clarios,” Han says.  “I am pleased to join this dynamic management team and become an integral part of executing their business plan. With key partnerships already in place, I look forward to engaging with additional global operators that have an interest in licensing this innovative, environmentally cleaner way to recycle.”

Steve Cotton, Aqua Metals president and chief executive officer, says, “Our plan, as we continue to scale the AquaRefinery is to build our capabilities and supplier partner network to deliver licensing packages globally. Our ability to do this is greatly enhanced with the benefit of Feng’s experience.”
