Duesenfeld

Duesenfeld stands out as a leading innovator in the recycling of lithium-ion batteries, promoting environmentally friendly processes that distinguish themselves from traditional methods by eliminating the need for initial melting or heating of battery modules. Originating as a spin-off from TU Braunschweig, Duesenfeld has fostered collaborations with academic institutions and research bodies, including TU Clausthal, to pioneer and patent advanced hydrometallurgical processes. Their patented LitoRec recycling method exemplifies an intricate blend of mechanical crushing and hydrometallurgical techniques, ensuring low-temperature processing that not only preserves the environment but also encapsulates stringent economic efficiency. This revolutionary approach facilitates the recovery and reuse of electrolytes at unprecedented purities, achieved under specific conditions without necessitating exhaust gas scrubbing, thereby reinforcing Duesenfeld's commitment to CO2 avoidance and high recycling efficiency.
