Company Overview#
ABR recycles lithium-ion battery manufacturing scrap and end-of-life batteries. Its direct recycling method uses water and ultrasonic waves to recover battery-grade materials. The process avoids high-temperature smelting and harsh chemicals.
Technology & Product#
ABR offers direct recycling services and remanufactured battery materials:
- Direct Recycling Process: ABR uses water and ultrasonic waves to separate active cathode and anode materials from foil substrates in battery manufacturing scrap.
- Remanufactured Cathode Materials: High-purity recycled cathode powders (such as NCM) reclaimed directly from manufacturing waste.
- Remanufactured Anode Material: A recycled anode powder produced by recovering anode active materials from battery manufacturing process scrap and regenerating them for reuse in battery production.
- Recycled Activated Carbon: Carbon-based materials extracted and prepared for industrial adsorption and energy applications.
Market & Use Cases#
ABR serves battery manufacturing gigafactories and battery recycling companies. These customers need to manage production scrap and build closed-loop material supply chains. Because ABR recovers active materials directly, its process uses less energy and produces less carbon than hydrometallurgical or pyrometallurgical recycling.
Traction & References#
- Ongoing Direct Recycling PoC with global battery manufacturers
→ Technical validation and business collaboration with PowerCo SE (Volkswagen Group, Germany) and Exide Energy Solutions (India) - Awarded “Green Battery Innovation Leader – South Korea 2025”
- Established a global-standard quality management system based on ISO 9001, ensuring reliable production and supply capabilities
Collaboration Relevance#
- Battery cell makers can collaborate with ABR to process and reuse cathode and anode scrap directly within their production facilities.
- EV manufacturers and electronics companies can run joint PoCs to assess the electrochemical performance of ABR’s remanufactured active materials in test cells.
- Material suppliers looking to establish low-carbon supply chains can integrate ABR’s direct recycling technology into their recovery pipelines.
