The transport sector plays a critical role in meeting global #climate targets, as it alone accounts for about one-third of total U.S. GHG #emissions. Widespread adoption of #electricvehicles will help, but the mining and manufacturing of #EV #battery materials still produce a lot of carbon emissions. The way forward is to #recycle critical materials from spent lithium-ion batteries and use an ultra-efficient process to make new, decarbonized #cathode material. The team of Chris Duhayon, PhD, Emma Giddings and Adrian Garaycochea at Ascend Elements just published a fascinating -- and well researched -- article about our patented Hydro-to-Cathode® direct precursor synthesis technology. Thanks to the Volta Foundation for publishing the work. How does Ascend Elements cut the carbon emissions produced during cathode #precursor (pCAM) manufacturing by up to 90%? Read on. 👇
Decarbonizing the EV battery supply chain is crucial for a sustainable future 🚗🔋 As the shift to EVs accelerates, Ascend Elements’ Hydro-to-Cathode® process meets the urgent need for sustainable battery recycling and new battery materials production while reducing carbon emissions and the environmental impacts of mining.

Based on construction progress to date and our latest CAD drawings, our engineers and artists are reimagining what our Apex 1 campus in Hopkinsville, KY will look like when finished. Project completion is still a couple years away, but the facility will begin producing #decarbonized, high-nickel #pCAM next year! The Apex 1 facility will be powered by renewable energy and produce 27kT of decarbonized pCAM per year in 2026. Eventually, the plant will produce enough pCAM and CAM to equip up to 750,000 #electric vehicle #battery packs per year. Take a closer look at Apex 1, North America's first commercial-scale pCAM manufacturing campus. We're making new, engineered #EV battery materials from used #lithium-ion batteries and manufacturing scrap. #recycling #circularity #closedloop https://lnkd.in/gy2T7HWb

You can always count on Canary Media Inc. to share some good news about the environment...and use some cool infographics while doing it. 📊 According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the United States is building a record amount of #cleanenergy capacity in 2024. This includes energy storage capacity (i.e. #batteries), which we all know can and must be #recycled at end of life. 🔋 ♻ Great reporting by Daniel McCarthy and the team at Canary Media. "The overwhelming majority — 97 percent — of the new capacity added this year came from carbon-free #solar, #battery storage, #wind, and nuclear projects." 👇 https://lnkd.in/gcC2KE4H

The terms “circularity” and “closed loop” are often used to describe #battery #recycling processes like #pyrometallurgy and #hydrometallurgy, but these traditional recycling processes are just the first steps in any round-trip journey of battery materials. The typical outputs of battery recycling require extensive processing before they can go into new EV batteries, but our patented Hydro-to-Cathode® direct precursor synthesis process makes sustainable, battery-ready #cathode material with up to 90% lower carbon emissions compared to traditional cathode manufacturing with primary materials from mining. As this diagram illustrates, it's the most direct and efficient #closedloop battery recycling process. Learn more about our #sustainable battery materials for the road to #netzero. 👇 https://lnkd.in/gpqQ-gTB

According to a new report from RMI, the considerable amount of mineral extraction needed to supply the EV revolution pales in comparison to the oil extracted for traditional ground transport every year. Since battery materials can be almost infinitely #recycled, it’s easy to imagine a future when most #EVs will be powered by recycled #metals.
