Lithium battery recycler Attero achieves ISO 14064 certification for GHG emissions verification
Attero is the first Indian company in the e-waste recycling industry to secure the ISO 14064 Certification for GHG Emissions Verification.
Fraunhofer ISE developing lithium extraction processes in Germany
The ThermIon project is intended to take into account the entire process chain from the pretreatment of the brine to lithium extraction and lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide crystallization to the controlled return of the brine. The new process is intended to be both environmentally friendly and economical.
The critical role of battery recycling in sustaining electronics and EV growth
While electronics and EV growth is a boon, it also underscores the need for sustainable growth and practices. Battery recycling is a key component of this sustainability, with environmental, economic and social benefits.
BatX Energies partners LW3 on battery passports
