The use of Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) in EV batteries has historically been favoured by Chinese manufacturers, but other OEMs have started to use LFP which is expected to take up 40% of the global battery market by 2030. LFP batteries are cobalt and nickel free, resulting in cheaper manufacturing costs. LFP batteries contain critical [...]
The qualification samples of nickel mixed hydroxide precipitate (MHP) produced at its Devon battery recycling scale-up line could be 50% lower carbon with stable levels of purity compared to using virgin raw material from mining and refining. The MHP will support the development of a low carbon footprint, low-cost cathode active material production process direct [...]
The new office is part of our business strategy to secure primary feed of Nickel Mixed Hydroxide Precipitate for imbalances in quality and quantity of feed at its “mega scale” battery recycling plant in Teesside. In addition to short term start-up supply shortages of scrap, variability in black mass quality from a portfolio of suppliers [...]
He will discuss the need for primary high Nickle MHP for imbalances in quality and quantity at “mega scale” recycling programs such as their planned Teesside facility, the only planned production of cathode active material in the UK. In the near term, new “pure” recyclers coming into the market, particularly in regions where overcapacity [...]
The UKs first battery recycler direct to cathode active material, has successfully completed its first audit and all its environmental protection activities are in full conformity with the International Standards and its Environment Agency approvals. Wardell Armstrong a multidisciplinary Environmental consultancy operating internationally performed the Audit. The company demonstrated its robust environment controls systems at [...]

Altilium Metals upcycles old electric vehicle (NMC 111) and portable electronics (LCO) batteries to latest generation Nickel-rich Cathode Active Material (NMC 622) for testing at Imperial College under its Automotive Transformation Fund SURV scale up program.Imperial to compare the electrochemical performance of the recycled cathode materials with commercially manufactured cathodes made from mined raw materials. [...]
We are pleased to announce positive results for test work on our 100% controlled 2,200 ha copper rich waste dump, located in central Bulgaria. A detailed mineralogical and hydraulic characterisation of the flotation tailings was carried out to obtain additional data for the leaching process of copper recovery. The most significant outcomes from the study [...]
The Guardian came to visit our Battery Recycling Technology Centre and we showed them our approach to supply a domestic, sustainable anode and cathode raw material from old electric vehicle batteries. At our scale-up line we are the only company in the UK recovering technology metals such as lithium, nickel, cobalt and manganese required for [...]
Visit to the labs of Imperial College, London under our joint research program funded by the UK Government’s Automotive Transformation Fund to show batteries made under our recycling process perform just as well as cathodes from virgin raw materials. At our EV battery recycling demonstration line we are using advance material science techniques to reengineer [...]
