Altilium has filed a patent application for its innovative logistical solution for environmentally friendly collection and discharging of end-of-life EV batteries. The patent relates to a specially designed container capable of safe transportation, storage and discharging of EV batteries, prior to dismantling and recycling at Altilium’s planned network of battery recycling stations. The invention will [...]

Altilium’s innovative EV battery recycling technology is the subject of a new case study by the Advanced Propulsion Centre, released today, which takes an in-depth look at the pioneering work being carried out at our facilities in Devon and our plans to support the electrification of transport in the UK. As the film notes, [...]

Altilium’s mega-scale recycling operations in the UK will provide enough lithium, nickel, cobalt and manganese for production of over 250,000 new EV batteries a year – enough to fuel over 80% of all EVs sold in the UK in 2023. As the world moves from a fossil fuel-based energy system to one powered by minerals, [...]

Altilium’s planned recycling operations in the UK and Europe will provide enough copper for production of over 596,500 new EV batteries a year – enough to fuel 33% of Tesla’s entire fleet of EVs delivered in 2023. With increasing demand for copper and other critical battery metals, Altilium is developing a sustainable domestic supply chain [...]

Altilium, a UK-based clean technology group focused on supporting the transition to net zero, and Enva, a leading recycling and resource recovery specialist, have today announced a new strategic partnership for the collection and recycling of EV batteries in the UK. As the number of electric vehicles and battery powered devices increases, the partnership brings [...]

Altilium Clean Technology planned scale-up of its operations over the next 36 months will result in total carbon savings of nearly 383,480 tonnes of carbon per year (based on a saving of 2.2kg CO₂ per kg of battery recycled). That’s the equivalent of the carbon saving of planting of nearly 19 million trees in 1 [...]

Our Medet recycling hub (ACT 3) will be a one-stop-shop for critical minerals in the European region, including copper, nickel, lithium, and cobalt. The 2,200-hectare Medet copper tailings project in central-west Bulgaria is not a mining venture, but an innovative waste-to-value facility. Here we will recycle copper from old mine waste essential for EV batteries, [...]

Altilium has filed a UK patent application for recovery of graphite from recycling old EV batteries, giving anode circularity and reducing the UK’s reliance on imported raw materials. The application is for an advanced process that recovers high-quality graphite from spent EV battery black mass (anode and cathode waste). This reclaimed graphite, processed through our [...]

Altilium, a UK-based clean technology group focused on supporting the transition to net zero, is proud to announce that it has secured backing from the UK government to begin rapid prototyping of lithium-ion EV battery cells using recycled cathode active materials (CAM). The innovative project, the first of its kind in the UK, has received [...]

Altilium, a UK-based clean technology group focused on supporting the transition to net zero, has today announced details of the latest advances in its innovative EcoCathode™ hydrometallurgical recycling technology, with breakthroughs in the recovery of lithium from new battery chemistries and the production of cathode active materials (CAM) from a mixed feed of lithium scrap.
