See the Tonopah Flats Project Page for the latest information.
What are the products of the company’s recycling process?
In our recycling process’ first demanufacturing phase, battery materials are recycled into products including copper, aluminum, steel, a lithium intermediate, and a black mass intermediate material. In our second hydrometallurgical selective leaching phase, the lithium intermediate is further refined into a battery grade lithium hydroxide product, and the black mass intermediate material is further refined into battery grade nickel, cobalt, manganese, and lithium hydroxide products.
How much lithium can the plant recycle in a given period of time?
Our first commercial recycling plant will be scaled to process 20,000 metric tonnes of feedstock per year. Further expansion of ABTC’s recycling technologies includes a planned commercial facility designed to process 100,000 metric tonnes of battery materials per year.
Does your process recycle the cathode material itself? What percentage does it yield, and at what purity?
End of life, full battery assemblies (including scrap materials) are to be received by ABTC and processed by our recycling facility. Each individual element is then extracted and purified to battery grade quality. These battery grade feedstocks are then sold directly back to the supply chain to manufacture new batteries.
ABTC’s proprietary advanced hydro technology uses automation in the de-manufacturing of batteries and targeted hydrometallurgical processing to recover the active battery metals. It avoids high-temperature processing, and is a streamlined and efficient process to yield a greater than 90% recovery rate of battery cathode specification products.
