Project Apex 2 Battery Materials Refining Center

planned

Project Apex 2 is the EU's first fully integrated battery materials refining center that will turn spent lithium-ion batteries into new, low-carbon cathode materials using Ascend Elements' patented Hydro-to-Cathode® technology. The facility will refine separated key cathode raw materials recovered from spent lithium-ion batteries into lithium carbonate battery-grade materials and precursor cathode active material (pCAM). It aims to create an integrated, low-emission supply chain for lithium-ion batteries inside the EU, supporting the EU's energy transition and net-zero goals.
