Purification of Black Mass for Re-Use in Battery Grade Material

Removal of impurities from black mass leachate is a complicated part of the EV battery recycling process. Traditional treatment methods such as chemical addition or ion exchange are inefficient and struggle to meet purity specifications. Identifying a process to reduce impurities in the refining stages is imperative to provide a scalable and profitable outcome. ElectraMet’s automated solution uses an electrochemical process to selectively remove targeted metals and impurities for EV battery recyclers.
