Aqua Metals is building a more sustainable battery recycling ecosystem

Charged EVs

Aqua Metals has pioneered a new electro-hydrometallurgy process that uses renewable electricity and recycles the chemicals used. We take that black mass as the input to our process, which is then powered by 100% renewable, carbon-free energy. The more collection we do, the better for the environment.
