Recycling
Our mission is to unlock lithium value from battery waste and enable a circular economy for battery production.
End-to-end battery technology innovation.
Gelion is committed to reducing the carbon footprint of not only our products but all lithium batteries over time, from improved sourcing of components and power and by maximising recyclability of components at end-of-life.
Empowering the battery circular economy with Battery Minerals Ltd.
Current battery metal recycling processes are inadequate for enabling a circular economy.
Gelion is pioneering an innovative battery recycling technology acquired from Johnson Matthey in 2023.
Gelion technology is being designed to provide lower OPEX, lower CAPEX, less toxic waste, lower eCO₂, broad applicability, increased purity of metal products and a novel ‘lithium first’ extraction route – sustainably recycling and recovering lithium-ion batteries to continue powering the clean energy transition.
