Chemical Process Produces Critical Battery Metals With No Waste

Cars That Think

Perhaps most interesting to the energy sector is the rarest of its products—hard-to-source nickel-manganese-cobalt hydroxide that is increasingly required for lithium-ion battery production. Our inputs are rock, water, and renewable energy, and our products come with no CO 2 emissions.”
