Based in Westborough, Mass., Ascend Elements is revolutionizing the production of lithium-ion battery materials by establishing a clean and sustainable supply chain using recycled feedstock. Its patented Hydro-to-Cathode™ technology directly synthesizes new cathode active materials from spent lithium-ion cells more efficiently than traditional methods, resulting in reduced cost, improved performance, and lowered GHG emissions. The results are lower cost, better performance batteries with fewer discarded in landfill, a cleaner manufacturing process, and a truly sustainable closed-loop circular battery economy. Ascend Elements is taking the lithium-ion battery industry to a higher level.

In London later this month? Our Chief Commercial Officer Ian Braime will join other EV battery industry leaders from Fastmarkets, Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, MAYER ENVIRONMENTAL LTD. and Stena to discuss sustainable battery materials. See you at ACI’s Battery Recycling Europe conference on February 28! 

Electric vehicles of the near future will be far cleaner than they are today thanks to recycled battery materials. Making new EV battery materials from recycled batteries with our patented Hydro-to-Cathode® process is much better for the environment than using primary (mined) materials.

How much better? If we made 10,000 metric tons of NMC 622 from recycled materials (that's about enough for 125,000 EVs), the carbon emissions reduction alone would be like taking 45,435 gas-powered vehicles off the road for a year! By 2030, we expect that carbon emissions reduction figure to be equivalent to taking 83,478 gas-powered vehicles off the road for a year! 

The team at Recycling Today wrote about our recent life cycle assessment results earlier this month. 👇

Ascend Elements manufactures advanced battery materials using valuable elements reclaimed from spent lithium-ion batteries. It uses hydroprocess recycling and direct recycling, which take old cathode material down to the atomic level to create new cathode materials. It also helps clients have the maximum return on assets to economically drive recycling and low-cost battery materials.
