Problem
The increasing volume of spent lithium-ion batteries poses a significant environmental challenge due to the hazardous materials they contain and the energy-intensive processes required to extract valuable components. Traditional recycling methods often involve high costs and substantial energy consumption, hindering the widespread adoption of sustainable battery material recovery.
Solution
Green Li-ion offers a modular hardware solution leveraging GREEN HYDROREJUVENATION™ technology to efficiently convert end-of-life lithium-ion batteries into high-purity precursor cathode active material (pCAM), graphite, and technical-grade lithium carbonate. This technology directly processes crushed and shredded black mass, bypassing energy-intensive steps and reducing overall costs. The system enables a closed-loop battery production cycle by reclaiming valuable materials for direct reuse in manufacturing new batteries. Green Li-ion's approach aims to minimize electronic waste and promote a more sustainable and economically viable battery recycling process.
Target Audience
The primary customers are battery manufacturers, recycling facilities, and electronic waste management companies seeking sustainable and economically attractive solutions for lithium-ion battery recycling.
