  7. #Winemaking acid powers cleaner way for cobalt-nickel recovery from #BatteryWaste

    Scientists use #TartaricAcid and electrowinning to split #cobalt and #nickel from battery waste for cleaner #recycling.

    By Neetika Walter
    Mar 11, 2026

    "Scientists have developed a cleaner way to separate cobalt and nickel from lithium-ion battery materials using an electrochemical technique boosted by a naturally occurring acid commonly associated with wine.

    [...]

    "The researchers say the approach could be particularly useful for '#UrbanMining,' the process of recovering valuable #minerals from discarded #electronics and spent #batteries. Countries with limited mining resources are increasingly looking to #recycling to secure supplies of critical materials.

    " '#Electrowinning’s edge in urban mining gives us a practical pathway to turn battery waste into a valuable resource for cobalt and nickel, while also helping the United States reduce its reliance on foreign supply chains,' Liu says."

  11. #BurlingtonVT startup #NthCycle scores billion-dollar metal #recycling deal

    By Hiawatha Bray Globe Staff, March 17, 2026

    "Both Nth Cycle and Ascend have developed water-based technologies to extract metals by reprocessing 'black mass,' the ground-up remnants of worn-out #lithiumIon batteries. They can also use the leftover scrap generated by battery manufacturers. Both companies claim that their technologies can capture these metals while generating far less #ToxicWaste than other recycling methods."

  16. #Maine will require battery makers to provide #recycling options

    By Tina Fischer, April 9, 2026

    "Gov. #JanetMills signed into law a measure that will offer more options to recycle both single-use #alkaline and #LithiumIon batteries in Maine.

    "LD 474 updates the state’s current product stewardship laws to require national battery manufacturing companies to set up drop-off locations and fund a statewide take-back program so that all batteries can be safely disposed of and rare earth metals can be extracted for reuse.

    "Eight other states have enacted similar laws.

    "The state’s existing battery recovery program, enacted in 1991, covers only nickel-cadmium batteries. Many hardware stores, town offices and Staples stores in Maine accept some types of batteries for recycling. The nationwide Battery Network lists on its website drop-off locations in Maine.

    "Improper disposal of lithium-ion batteries — commonly found in power tools, cell phone chargers and #vaping devices — has led to at least 24 fires at recycling facilities in Maine. Disposal concerns have driven up insurance rates for towns, according to the #MaineDEP.

    "More than 820,000 pounds of batteries are thrown away in Maine every year, according to the Natural Resources Council of Maine [#NRCM].

    " 'Holding corporate battery makers accountable for cleaning up waste will lower costs for Mainers and help curb demand for mining rare earth metals,' said Vanessa Berry, sustainable Maine program manager at the nonprofit.

    "It is technically illegal in Maine to dispose of rechargeable, button cell, or lead-acid batteries in the regular trash."

  37. #RecyclingLead for U.S. Car Batteries Is #Poisoning People

    By Peter S. Goodman, Will Fitzgibbon and Samuel Granados Visuals by Finbarr O’Reilly and Carmen Abd Ali
    Nov. 18, 2025

    Excerpt: "The #AutoIndustry touts #BatteryRecycling as an environmental success story. Lead from old batteries, when recycled cleanly and safely, can be melted down and reused again and again with minimal pollution.

    "But companies have rejected proposals to use only lead that is certified as safely produced. Automakers have excluded lead from their #environmental policies.
    Battery makers rely on the assurances of trading companies that lead is recycled cleanly. These intermediaries rely on perfunctory audits that make recommendations, not demands.

    "The industry, in effect, built a global supply system in which everyone involved can say someone else is responsible for oversight.

    "#Nigeria, the economic engine of West Africa, is among the fastest-growing sources of recycled lead for American companies."

  41. A tour of Redwood Materials plant. Wonderful to see large scale battery recycling happening. Sadly it looks like hell on earth but then it did before they built a factory so fair enough!
    They are also creating a huge BESS with the old batteries they get which still have life in them.
