Swedish battery maker Northvolt announced that it has produced its first battery cell with 100% recycled nickel, manganese and cobalt at its Northvolt Labs in the central city of Västerås.
The cell was manufactured as part of the company’s recycling program Revolt.
According to the firm, the inputs for the NMC cathode were recovered from battery waste through a low-energy hydrometallurgical treatment which involves the use of an aqueous solution to isolate the metals and separate them from impurities.
