India largest critical minerals company and a leading urban mining firm, Attero, has announced that organisations worldwide can now access Certified Emission Reductions (CERs) generated under its UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change)-registered Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Project 9739.
According to the company, CDM Project 9739 is the world's first and only UNFCCC-registered and verified carbon credit project under the AMS-III.BA methodology, focused on the recovery and recycling of materials from e-waste.
Attero said the CERs generated through the project go beyond reducing carbon emissions by also promoting e-waste recycling, critical mineral recovery and the circular economy. The company believes these high-quality, verified carbon credits will help organisations strengthen their ESG and decarbonisation strategies.
Commenting on the development, Nitin Gupta, CEO and Co-founder of Attero, said organisations are increasingly focusing on the quality and credibility of carbon credits rather than just the volume. He added that CDM Project 9739 reflects years of innovation in advanced recycling technologies and the company's commitment to building sustainable supply chains for critical minerals.
Gupta said Attero proprietary technologies, backed by more than 50 global patents, recover critical minerals with over 98% recovery efficiency while achieving more than 99.9% purity in battery materials.
According to the company, the world generates more than 60 million tonnes of e-waste every year, making it the fastest-growing waste stream globally. Each carbon credit represents the avoidance of one tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO₂e) emissions.
As global carbon markets continue to expand and organisations increasingly prioritise high-integrity carbon offsets, Attero believes its UNFCCC-certified carbon credits will provide businesses with an opportunity to support verified climate action while advancing the circular economy, responsible resource recovery and critical mineral security.
