Syensqo and cylib reach a milestone in lithium recovery from spent electric vehicle batteries
Syensqo and cylib have reached a significant milestone in circular battery materials processing by producing high-purity lithium hydroxide from spent EV batteries. This collaboration marks a major advancement in the recovery of valuable materials, as very few recycling companies today can produce lithium at battery-grade, especially lithium hydroxide, the preferred form of lithium for new EV batteries.
