Aqua Metals is building a more sustainable battery recycling ecosystem

Charged EVs

Pyrometallurgy, which traditionally doesn’t recover carbon or lithium, seems likely to be phased out. Aqua Metals has developed a process that it says is much cleaner, more efficient and more cost-effective. We take that black mass as the input to our process, which is then powered by 100% renewable, carbon-free energy.
