By TIOL News Service

NEW DELHI, JUNE 03, 2023: MINISTRY of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) transferred cost effective Li-ion battery recycling technology to nine recycling industries and start-ups yesterday as part of Mission LiFE under "Promote circularity campaign".

The recycling process involves leaching followed by hierarchical selective extraction of metal values through solvent extraction process. These secondary raw materials could be used for battery manufacturing or in other potential applications.
