Process
Two thermal steps. No acid, no solvent, no new kind of plant.
Others dissolve the cathode and sell the metals. We keep the crystal and put the lithium back.
Cathode materials · Applied intelligence
A self-driving lab that brings spent lithium iron phosphate back better than it left the factory, and learns from every batch it touches.
What we do
Process
Others dissolve the cathode and sell the metals. We keep the crystal and put the lithium back.
Result
Parity on cycle life. An advantage where it matters most: the pulse.
Model
Seven measurement channels on every lot, and a decade of data behind them.
Lithium iron phosphate doesn’t wear out. It runs out of lithium. We put it back.
The world is moving to lithium iron phosphate. No one has been able to bring it back at a profit, or better than it was. We can, and we built the model that makes it work on any feedstock.
Matter should learn.
Why a lab that thinks, why we started with the humblest cathode, and what a materials engineer’s day looks like in 2035.
