[{"type":"text","content":" News Release Highlights: Significant advancements in eco-friendly lithium-ion battery material recovery from black mass achieved through Battery X's proprietary froth flotation process. Battery X plans to conduct assays to quantify graphite recovery rates from black mass and shift focus toward validating oxide and phosphate recovery from remaining tailings. Collaboration with a Global Top 20 University yields promising results in graphite recovery, focusing on refining multi-stage flotation protocols for improved process design. VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 30, 2024 / Battery X Metals Inc.(CSE:BATX) (OTCQB:BATXF) (FSE:R0W, WKN:A3EMJB) (\"Battery X Metals\" or the \"Company\") announces significant advancements by its wholly-owned subsidiary, Battery X Recycling Technologies Inc. (\"Battery X\"), in developing sustainable technology for recovering battery-grade materials from lithium-ion batteries. In collaboration with a globally recognized Top 20 University (the \"Global Top 20 University\"), this initiative has shown promising results in optimizing graphite recovery through Battery X's proprietary froth flotation process, using standardized protocols for black mass recovery. Advancing the Clean Energy Transition and EV Revolution Through Battery-Grade Material Recovery Battery X is advancing eco-friendly battery recycling technology in collaboration with a Global Top 20 University to efficiently and economically recover battery-grade materials such as graphite, lithium, nickel, and cobalt, from the residual material of shredded, end-of-life lithium-ion batteries, called \"black mass\". Unlike traditional hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical methods, which do not recover graphite-despite it comprising roughly 95% of the battery anode6-Battery X's innovative froth flotation technology has shown promising results in recovering battery-grade graphite from black mass. This key breakthrough addresses a critical gap in the rapidly growing battery recycling market. Preliminary results have successfully recovered the majority of graphite in the black mass samples, demonstrating the flotation process's effectiveness. These results lay a foundation for further validation, with plans to conduct chemical assays to quantify graphite recovery rates, assess purity levels, and confirm the separation of oxides and phosphates from t...
