The Tata Chemicals works in the fields of chemicals, crop nutrition, and consumer products will also recycle the li-ion batteries. The Tata chemicals unit is located near Mumbai, India.
In Li-ion battery recycling process the metals like lithium, cobalt, nickel, and manganese are recovered and are 99% pure in nature. This process helps to collect the materials from the used ones and to reuse it which leads to the need for fewer energy and natural resources. The recovered materials are delivered to the battery manufactures to be reused for the production of new batteries.
The company’s aim is to strengthen the energy sciences business undertaken by them. The recycling process is a pilot project and is productive. The company targets to recycle 500 tons of spent Li-ion batteries.
