CRUSHING, INERTISING AND RECYCLING LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES
INNOVATION TREE (ITREE) IS A TECHNOLOGY-BASED COMPANY FOUNDED IN 2020 with the aim of developing and implementing advanced recycling processes to reduce waste and recover critical raw materials considered strategic by the EU. Lithium-ion batteries (LIB) are increasingly being used especially in electric cars (EV), which is emerging as the vehicle of the future. It is estimated that by 2030 there will be more than 40 million EVs on the road in Europe, but currently there is no established technology to recycle them. iTree is developing a hydro-mechanical technology to recover used metals and manufacture new LIBs. Currently, less than 5 companies worldwide can recycle these elements; and recovery and processing efficiencies are low.
