Mecaware

Description

Mecaware is an innovative industrial startup that produces strategic metals from end-of-life batteries and battery manufacturing scrap from factories. We recover lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese and other essential metals in the form of carbonates and metal hydroxides. Mecaware’s eco²-efficiency solution delivers both environmental and economic performance. With our technology, strategic metals can be extracted in a closed loop, without the need for harmful inputs. The process generates zero effluent, including sulfates, and requires very little primary energy. Our business model is designed to be flexible and responsive. Compact plants are located near the sources of waste, substantially reducing startup costs and maximizing supply chain efficiency. Battery waste is a local resource capable of supporting a domestic European strategic metals supply. And recycled materials are a pillar of a lower-carbon, more sustainable, and responsible battery industry.
