Sustainable, low carbon battery materials
Embracing a circular economy by turning old EV batteries into a domestic source of critical minerals.
About us
Altilium is a UK-based clean technology group supporting the transformation of the global energy sector from fossil-based to zero-carbon.
Our vision is for a circular and domestic EV battery supply chain, where the critical minerals powering the energy transition are recovered from recycling end-of-life EV batteries, saving our natural resources and reducing mining.
We are developing green processing technologies and scaling recycling infrastructure to supply low-carbon battery materials, strengthening UK energy security.
Our purpose
To support the UK net-zero challenge and industrial resilience with high volumes of cathode and anode materials from recycling old EV batteries, promoting a circular economy and decarbonising automotive supply chains.
Our mission
To be the battery recycler of choice for automotive OEMs by providing the lowest carbon, most eco-friendly battery materials to meet their sustainability and regulatory obligations.
Process
At Altilium Clean Technology, we’re redefining the EV battery value chain in the UK with our EcoCathode ™ green recycling process. This proprietary technology transforms used EV batteries and gigafactory scrap into high-purity, battery-grade metal salts, precursor CAM (P-CAM) and cathode active material (CAM) essential for sustainable battery production.
EcoCathode ™ green processing in numbers:
• 95% recovery of critical minerals including lithium, nickel and cobalt
• 20% lower cost than commercial CAM
• 99% recovery of graphite for use in new anodes
• 60% lower sodium sulphate flowsheet, minimising waste streams
• 24% lower emissions versus conventional hydrometallurgical recycling
As domestic transport remains the UK’s largest carbon-emitting sector and amid rising concerns about the environmental impact of battery manufacturing, our low-carbon, eco-friendly battery materials allow automakers to decarbonise transport.
