BATTIA is developing an integrated process to recycle end-of-life electric-vehicle batteries, using robotic dismantling and selective recovery to return high-purity lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese and graphite to battery makers.
BATTIA is building a recycling system for end-of-life and damaged electric-vehicle batteries. Its process is designed to handle the full route from safe discharge and robotic pack dismantling through selective mechanical pre-treatment and hydrometallurgical recovery. Computer vision and an inert atmosphere support battery disassembly, while selective separation aims to reduce material mixing before recovery.
The intended output is high-purity lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese and graphite that can re-enter battery production. BATTIA is still developing the technology: its site reports a current TRL 4 and work toward TRL 6 in 2027. It plans a 1,000-tonne-per-year pilot plant for 2028–29, so this is a pre-operational industrial process rather than a running commercial recycling plant.
