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 cathode active material (CAM) and precursor CAM (pCAM) essential for sustainable battery production.
EcoCathode ™ and EcoAnode ™ green processing in numbers:
- 95% recovery of critical minerals
- 20% lower cost than commercial CAM
- 99% recovery of graphite for use in anodes.
- 60% lower sodium sulphate flowsheet, minimising waste streams.
Amid rising concerns about the environmental impact of battery manufacturing, our low-carbon battery materials allow automakers to hit their sustainability and regulatory targets, as well giving the UK domestic supply and energy security.
Our Climate Change Impact in numbers:
- 74% reduction in GHG emissions for cathode materials compared to mining.
- 24% lower emissions versus conventional hydrometallurgical recycling.
- 77% reduction in GHG emissions for anode materials compared to primary production.
As domestic transport remains the UK’s largest carbon-emitting sector, decarbonising EV battery production is vital. Using Altilium’s recycled cathode and anode materials could reduce the carbon footprint of a new EV by 25%, compared to using primary mined materials.
We’re proud to contribute to the UK’s push for a sustainable, low-carbon, circular economy for critical EV battery materials, making EVs even cleaner.
