RecycLiCo and Nanoramic Collaboration Selected for Award Negotiations Under the DOE Advanced Energy Manufacturing and Recycling Grant Program

RecycLiCo Battery Materials Inc.

 (“RecycLiCo”), listed on TSX.V: AMY, OTCQB: AMYZF, FSE: ID4, a leader in sustainable lithium-ion battery recycling, and 

Nanoramic Laboratories

 (“Nanoramic”), a leader in innovative energy storage technology, are pleased to announce that the DOE Advanced Energy Manufacturing and Recycling Grant Program has selected Nanoramic for award negotiations with RecycLiCo as a partner and collaborator on the grant. This partnership marks another step forward in promoting sustainable practices in the lithium-ion battery industry.

RecycLiCo’s technology is focused on the recycling and upcycling of lithium-ion battery waste into battery-grade products, such as lithium chemicals and precursor cathode active material (pCAM). This process is in sync with Nanoramic’s expertise in electrode production, paving the way for a circular economy in battery manufacturing. Under this collaboration, RecycLiCo will process production scrap from Nanoramic's demonstration line, aiming to produce pCAM and lithium chemicals that adhere to Nanoramic’s battery-grade specifications, ready for use in new battery manufacturing.

Recent laboratory test results (link here) from the ongoing collaboration between RecycLiCo and Nanoramic have shown positive results. RecycLiCo’s advanced recycling process efficiently treats Nanoramic's NMP-free and PVDF-free electrodes, reducing processing steps and resource consumption. A notable achievement is the ability to separate the cathode material from aluminum foil more quickly and without chemical additives, enhancing environmental friendliness and streamlining RecycLiCo’s core technology.
