Altilium is pleased to announce the completion of a Maiden JORC Mineral Resource Estimate for its Medet mineral recovery and recycling project (ACT 3), an innovative waste-to-value facility focused on developing a sustainable European supply chain for copper and other critical minerals. Located in Bulgaria, the integrated critical minerals recycling project includes a 2,200-hectare copper [...]
Altilium’s COO and co-founder Dr Christian Marston was interviewed for the latest edition of the Advanced Propulsion Centre’s Road to Net Zero podcast. As Dr Marston explains in the podcast, the transition to net zero will require huge volumes of critical minerals, which the UK does not have in large quantities. By recovering lithium and [...]
With a growing network of strategic relationships in place and a portfolio of best-in-class production solutions, Altilium is building out the foundations for its Urban Mining Ecosystem, ensuring a secure feedstock supply for recycling and chemical refining to battery-ready cathode active materials (CAM) at its UK facilities. Securing a reliable supply of feedstock for mega-scale [...]
Altilium, a UK-based clean technology group focused on supporting the transition to net zero, and Connected Energy, a leading developer of second-life battery energy storage systems, have today announced a new strategic relationship that will see the two companies working together to extend the lifecycle of EV batteries. The collaboration brings together two of the [...]
The Faraday Institution highlights the work of pioneering UK companies, including Altilium, in a new report focusing on the growth of the EV battery recycling industry, published this week. As the report notes, EV battery recycling is set to become a substantial economic opportunity, with global turnover expected to reach $40.6 billion by 2030. However, [...]
With global lithium demand set to more than double by 2030, recycling end-of-life EV batteries will be key to creating a sustainable circular economy for this critical battery material, as well as helping to decarbonise EV production and satisfy new EU regulations for sustainable batteries. Lithium is the one of the key components in EV [...]
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 [...]
