Altilium signs MOU to supply Talga with recycled graphite ? Talga Group Ltd has today announced details of a non-binding MOU with Altilium Clean Technology to secure a sustainable supply of graphite for use in EV battery anode products. ? Under the agreement, Altilium proposes to supply Talga with up to 16,000 tonnes of recycled graphite over three years commencing 2026. ? Graphite is the largest component in electric vehicle (EV) batteries, comprising 25-30% of their weight. With accelerated take-up of EVs, demand for graphite is expected to grow by 250% between 2023 and 2030, leading to a global supply deficit of 777,000 tonnes by 2030. ? Currently over 90% of the world’s graphite is refined in China, which imposed export controls on graphite in 2023. This has created a need for innovative recycling methods to secure domestic supplies of high-quality graphite needed for production of lithium-ion batteries. ? Using its EcoAnode? process, Altilium is able to recover 99% of the graphite from end-of-life EV batteries. Initial tests have shown that this recycled graphite matches the purity and physical characteristics of primary sources. The process has also been shown to deliver significant reductions in climate change impact for production of anode materials, with 77% lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to primary production from China. Altilium’s planned mega-scale battery recycling in Teesside will have capacity to recover 20,000 tonnes of graphite annually, meeting over 20% of UK demand by 2030.

Altilium was pleased to welcome award-winning motoring broadcaster and transport campaigner Quentin Willson back to Devon for an exclusive first look inside its new state-of-the art recycling facility and to hear from the company’s leadership team on their ambitious plans to deliver 50% of the UK’s critical battery metals from recycling by 2040. “The future minerals needed for electrification don’t have to come from mining,” Altilium COO and co-founder, Dr Christian Marston, told the filmmakers. “We believe that we can give 50% of the lithium, 50% of the nickel and over 80% of the graphite needed for EV batteries from recycling by 2040.” The film showcases Altilium’s cutting edge technology at its 18,000 square foot ACT 2 recycling facility in Plymouth, where the company is able to recover over 95% of cathode metals from waste EV batteries, enabling production of high volumes of battery materials for qualification with automotive customers. The film also highlights the pioneering work being carried at the UK Battery Industrialisation Centre (UKBIC ), which has recently begun processing Altilium’s recycled cathode active materials (CAM) for the production of battery cathodes, another UK first. By recovering and refining these critical metals from end-of-life batteries, Altilium is not only reducing the UK’s reliance on imported materials, but also cutting the carbon footprint of battery production, making EVs even greener and helping our automotive partners achieve their sustainability and regulatory targets.

Altilium in the news: Rewriting The Battery Recycling Rulebook Great to see Forbes highlighting the innovative strides businesses like Altilium Clean Technology are making towards scaling-up the EV battery recycling industry in the UK and Europe. As the article notes, recycling is about more than ensuring safe disposal of old EV batteries once they reach end-of-life. By recovering critical metals from these spent EV batteries and upcycling to modern battery chemistries, Altilium is delivering new battery materials that can match and even surpass the performance of virgin mined materials – with 20% lower cost and up to 74% lower carbon emissions. Recent analysis by Imperial College London found that Altilium’s recycled cathode active materials (CAM) have higher purity, improved morphology and superior electrochemical performance compared to commercially available materials. This means longer battery life, faster charging and lower costs, a game-changer for sustainability in the EV industry. Altilium’s proprietary recycling process can also recover over 99% of the graphite from end-of-life EV batteries, for re-use in the production of new anode materials, ensuring all battery materials are recycled and improving the economics for recycling lower value LFP batteries. At Altilium, we're proud to be driving innovation in this new industry, pioneering green solutions for EV battery recycling and helping our automotive partners achieve their sustainability and regulatory targets with domestically produced battery materials that are lower cost, lower carbon and better performance.

?? ???????????? ????????????????: Employee Spotlight - ELIZA ???? In celebration of National Engineering Week, we’re shining the spotlight on Eliza, our Junior Chemical Engineer. ?? Eliza joined us this year, fresh from the University of Strathclyde graduating with a Master's in Chemical Engineering. She took the leap and relocated from Scotland to Devon to support Altilium in its scale-up efforts. here's what she shared about her move to the South-West: ??"Altilium enabled me to travel down for a Company Day to visit beforehand which gave me the opportunity to meet who I’d be working with and helped give me a feeling of where I would be living" and "I've been really lucky with my flatmates, they’ve really helped me feel settled and shown me the sights. Plus, I’ve met up with people from work for coffee and gone for post work climbs." ? We also asked Eliza: "What sparked your interest in Engineering?" She shared: "I always enjoyed STEM subjects throughout school and knew I wanted to expand on this as I got older. The idea of pursuing engineering, particularly chemical engineering, appealed to me because I liked the idea of following concepts from basic principles into functional processes that provide the products and services that are the cornerstone of the society we live in." Eliza has immersed herself in our engineering team, applying the knowledge and skills she gained at university to real-world projects that directly contribute to our scale-up efforts. ?? Are you studying Chemical Engineering and exploring your career options? Or maybe you’re looking for work experience, an internship, or a year in placement? ?? Get in touch to see how Altilium can support you.
