Lithium Refining For Battery Recyclers
Recycle Li more
with our technology
Lithium-ion battery recycling will become more crucial as the global demand for lithium accelerates. Incumbent lithium battery recycling technologies produce a lithium sulfate product which still requires conversion to lithium hydroxide or lithium carbonate. Mangrove optimizes the lithium refining for battery recyclers to produce a battery-grade product with our ground-breaking electrochemical technology. Mangrove’s innovative breakthrough platform unlocks the EV battery market for recyclers by producing lithium at unparalleled prices and purity.
Conventional lithium refining vs Mangrove lithium refining
The benefits of Mangrove's innovative refining technology
- Battery recyclers can work with Mangrove to produce battery-grade lithium and unlock the fastest growing lithium market: Electric vehicles
- Improves bankability by eliminating sulfuric acid consumable cost through recycling of by-product in a closed-loop system
- Eliminates the need for caustic sodium hydroxide consumable
- Eliminates the costs and burden of disposal for sodium sulfate
- Can be co-located near the site of battery recycling
- Modular technology can be scaled to meet capacity and product specifications
- Achieves high purity battery-grade lithium hydroxide at sector-leading costs
Challenges of relying on incumbent refining processes
- Time and capital intensive
- Requires additional costly chemical inputs
- Produces sodium sulfate waste that needs to be properly disposed of
- With incumbent technology, lithium sulfate is frequently shipped overseas to refining partners, exposing stock to supply chain risks and associated costs
