Clean TeQ Water is evaluating whether their continuous ion exchange technology has advantages in the recycling of Ni and Co in black mass from Li-ion batteries. They are working in partnership with Sunrise Energy Metals (https://www.sunriseem.com/) to develop a process that takes black mass as an input and produces a sufficiently purified Ni and Co liquor to feed into the Sunrise refinery.
In order to carry out their evaluation, they need a sample (a few kg) of representative black mass (mechanically-processed NMC batteries consisting mainly of cathode and anode material, with traces of electrolyte, foils and other materials) for laboratory testwork.
If you are able to assist, please reach out to Adam Fishmann, Principal Chemist – Hydrometallurgy, Clean TeQ Water Limited at afischmann@cleanteqwater.com.
