When it comes to battery recycling, performance isn’t just measured in purity or recovery rate—it’s measured in return on investment. At Green Li-ion, we’ve built our patented modular technology not just for sustainability, but for scale, profitability, and efficiency. For recyclers, OEMs, and governments evaluating where to invest in lithium-ion recovery infrastructure, our platform delivers unmatched throughput and a compelling business case.
High-Value Output: 99% Pure pCAM
At the core of our system is the ability to convert unsorted black mass into 99% pure pre-cathode active material (pCAM)—one of the most valuable outputs in the battery supply chain. Unlike conventional recycling, which often requires further refining or downstream processing, our product is battery-ready. This reduces the number of steps between waste and revenue.
With Green Li-ion’s patented process, customers can go from feedstock to finished material in a single modular line—cutting complexity, transportation costs, and time to market.
Unmatched Throughput in a Small Footprint
Each Green Li-ion unit is engineered to process up to 50 kg of black mass per hour, with commercial configurations reaching several thousand tons per year. Thanks to our modular approach, operators can scale production capacity by adding additional units without needing to redesign their facility.
This flexibility makes our tech ideal for both established recyclers and new market entrants. Whether you’re retrofitting an existing plant or launching a new operation, Green Li-ion enables customized scale without compromising performance.
Energy Efficiency & Operating Costs
Our closed-loop hydrometallurgical process consumes significantly less energy and water than traditional methods—and requires no high-temperature smelting. This translates to lower utility costs, reduced environmental compliance burdens, and faster permitting in many regions.
In fact, our process delivers up to 75% savings in operational costs compared to traditional approaches when factoring in energy, labor, and post-processing steps. These cost savings allow operators to reach profitability faster, with shorter ROI timelines and minimal overhead.
CapEx vs. Payback: A Smart Long-Term Play
While many legacy recycling systems require multi-million-dollar CapEx outlays and years to build, Green Li-ion’s modular systems offer a faster and more affordable entry point. Typical installation time is under 12 months, and thanks to the high-value output and low operating cost, many of our partners reach payback in under 2 years—sometimes in as little as 12–18 months depending on black mass pricing and offtake contracts.
For investors, governments, and recyclers seeking to reduce risk while still advancing circular economy goals, this is a highly attractive profile.
Data-Driven Performance You Can Trust
Our systems are deployed and validated across multiple international sites. Whether operating in Singapore, Australia, India, or the United States, Green Li-ion provides detailed output data, real-time monitoring, and transparent tracking of recovery rates, uptime, and material flow.
This level of traceability ensures operators can meet regulatory standards, win offtake partnerships, and demonstrate environmental and financial value to stakeholders.
Conclusion: Profitable Recycling Is Possible—With the Right Tech
At Green Li-ion, we’re not just innovating for sustainability—we’re building the future of profitable, scalable recycling. Our ROI isn’t theoretical—it’s proven in real-world operations. By choosing our modular platform, customers get a solution that’s high-impact, cost-effective, and ready to grow with demand.
