Billerica, MA- 4/15/24 - Today, AM Batteries, a pioneer in the field of lithium-ion dry-electrode technologies, announced it will be working with Tokyo-based Zeon Corporation (Zeon) to develop dry battery electrode (DBE) manufacturing with an innovative and novel binder. Through its investment arm, Zeon Ventures, Zeon invested in AM Batteries in December 2022. As part of this deal, Zeon worked closely with AM Batteries to support the commercialization of the company’s electrode manufacturing solution for lithium-ion batteries. In battery manufacturing, the electrode process mixes a large amount of active materials, and small amounts of conductive carbon and binder before coating …

ATOKA, Okla.--Green Li-ion, a lithium-ion battery recycling technology company, announced the launch of its first commercial-scale installation to produce sustainable, battery-grade materials, the first of its kind in North America. The plant, located within an existing recycling facility, will produce valuable battery-grade cathode and anode materials from concentrated components of spent batteries using Green Li-ion’s patented multi-cathode-producing Green-hydrorejuvenation™ technology. The current recycling process for spent lithium-ion batteries in North America includes sorting batteries before shredding, which are then processed into “black mass” and further into sulfates. The material is then exported overseas, most often to China and South Korea, for …
