Illustration of a proposed uranium extraction facility in the Gulf of Mexico. Specially treated fibres would capture uranium dissolved in seawater as natural ocean currents move through the installation. The technology has so far been demonstrated on a small experimental scale, with Supercritical Materials targeting its first industrial-scale facility by 2033. Illustration: Supercritical Materials.
