The need


The European battery manufacturing industry faces major challenges in terms of raw material supply and the recycling of production scraps, the process of which is consuming these very same raw materials.

The solution


MECAWARE produces critical and strategic raw materials by recycling technological waste from end-of-life batteries and production scraps. The company designs and deploys in situ game-changing and disruptive eco² (ecologically and economically efficient) industrial solutions. This solution is an innovative technology based on synergistic CO2 capture and critical metal recycling. 

The value proposition


  • Secures 70-80 percent volume and price of total EV battery production costs.
  • Reduces 30-50 percent of EV battery recycling costs vs conventional hydrometallurgy recycling processes.
  • Delivers sustainable and recycled metals according to future EU regulations (Critical Raw Material Act).
  • Allows us to develop the local industrial circular economy and secure the supply chain of critical and strategic metals.
