RecycLiCo™ Pilot Plant Prepares for Stage 5 Testing to Recover Lithium Carbonate and Recycle Process Reagents and Water

RecycLiCo Battery Materials (“AMY” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce analytical results from the Company’s independent contract lab, Kemetco Research, an integrated science, technology and innovation company.

Using the Company’s patented RecycLiCo™ process, Kemetco attained 99.94% purity from the recovered NCA cathode material. The material was tested in stages 3 and 4 of the RecycLiCo™ pilot plant project.

Following the NCA cathode precursor purity results and previously achieved 99.93% purity from NMC cathode material, the Company is preparing to enter the final stage (stage 5) of the RecycLiCo™ pilot plant project for the recovery of battery-grade lithium carbonate and the recycling of process reagents and water.

“Kemetco’s expertise in development of hydrometallurgical processes has enabled them to meet their goals and the Company’s expectations during all stages of the pilot plant project. We are excited to close the loop on our patented process as the final stage of the project approaches,” said Larry Reaugh, President and CEO of RecycLiCo Battery Materials.
