AquaRefining - Lithium-ION Battery Recycling Solution
While the shift to electrifying cars is imperative for the planet, this transition will create a new environmental timebomb without metals recycling innovations that are clean and cost-efficient.
140m electric cars globally by 2030 will create massive demand for lithium-ion batteries and critical minerals.
More than 11 million pounds of lithium-ion batteries are expected to reach the end of life by 2030.
Demand for lithium-ion battery materials in the next decade is predicted to increase over 575% for lithium and 1237% for nickel.
We cannot mine enough raw materials to meet our lithium-ion battery needs.
Recycling is the only solution for keeping strategically critical metals within regional supply chains, reducing the dependency risk and environmental cost of relying on foreign sources.
