Recycling Today?Magazine’s Christopher Voloschuk and DeAnne Toto featured us and ABTC CEO Ryan Melsert on this month’s cover, highlighting our in-house expertise, cutting-edge recycling operations, and U.S.-based lithium extraction technologies. “I think [what stands out] is the fact that we tend to do so much in-house,” Melsert says. “It’s rare. We have our own R&D team, our own engineering and construction operations. The fact that we don't rely on licensed technology or outside contractors to come and build a portion of our plant for us [is unique]. We really do just have that mentality of wanting to own our future and design, construct and operate in-house. I think the most exciting this is, while being disciplined, how quickly we’ve scaled.” Article Notables: --At our 120,000-square-foot lithium-ion battery recycling facility at the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center, we recover critical materials like lithium, nickel, cobalt, and manganese - helping create a domestic circular battery supply chain for the U.S. --Unlike many in the industry, we design, construct, and operate our facilities in-house, ensuring faster scale-up times as well as complete control over innovation and scalability. --With nearly $300M in federal funding, we’re scaling up - including plans for a new large-scale recycling facility in the southeastern U.S. and the commercialization of our Tonopah lithium extraction operations, a game-changer for domestic lithium supply.

We’re honored to be recognized among the global leaders advancing the circular battery economy! ???? This recognition underscores the critical importance of building a system that benefits the environment, the economy, and energy security. Not all battery metal recycling methods benefit the environment, just as not all mining practices are detrimental. With our groundbreaking technologies, we’re proving that responsible recovery and manufacturing of battery metals is possible. From recycling lithium-ion batteries to battery-grade lithium manufacturing from claystone found at Tonopah Lithium Flats project in Nevada, we’re committed to driving a domestic, circular economy to produce metals for the batteries that power industries and energy systems across the globe. Together, we can responsibly produce the metals that power our future. https://lnkd.in/gs7dfc8Z
