Germany
Duesenfeld, based in Braunschweig, Germany, has developed a highly sustainable way to recycle lithium-ion batteries. The Duesenfeld process focuses on recycling as much reusable material as possible while bringing down energy consumption and emissions at the same time.
Duesenfeld combines mechanical and thermodynamic processes rather than using conventional battery melting, pyrolysis, or heating. Duesenfeld already recycles batteries for companies with headquarters in the United States. The company’s mid-term goal is to build a network of decentralized recycling facilities in the U.S.
Innovation theme: Sustainable way to recycle lithium-ion batteries, Recover maximum reusable materials, Rduces energy consumption and emission.
