About the company
Reegen Inc. is a for-profit biotechnology company located in Ithaca, New York, focused on developing innovative technologies for sustainable resource extraction. Registered in SAM.gov since September 2022, the company specializes in advanced biological solutions for rare earth element (REE) recovery and purification, with a strategic emphasis on creating environmentally sustainable methods for obtaining critical minerals from waste and end-of-life materials. The company operates as a corporate entity and has demonstrated expertise in developing cutting-edge biotechnological processes that address national challenges in mineral extraction and supply chain resilience.
Through its federal grant awards from the National Science Foundation's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program, Reegen Inc. has been developing a sophisticated biological system for extracting rare earth elements from various waste sources. The company's primary work involves a three-step process utilizing engineered bacteria to leach REEs from materials like platinum-group-metal slags, magnetic waste, incinerated insulin pumps, and steel slag. Their SBIR Phase I and Phase II awards, totaling $1,387,040, have supported the development of a clean, biological REE extraction and purification system that aims to reduce U.S. dependence on foreign REE sources. Collaborating closely with Cornell University's Barstow Lab through sub-grant awards, Reegen has been advancing genetic engineering tools for REE-biosorbing microbes, developing bio-columns for REE separations, and working toward creating a scalable process for manufacturing pure rare earth oxides. The broader impact of their work addresses national security concerns by developing a domestic, sustainable method for obtaining critical minerals essential for high-tech applications like electric motors, battery technologies, and sustainable energy systems.
