into 98% sulfuric acid and 50% sodium hydroxide with minimal electrical load.
Sodium sulfate is a major waste product in the lithium-ion battery value chain, posing environmental challenges in terms of waste management and ecological impact.
The establishment of lithium-ion battery industry plants is hindered by the lack of sustainable solutions.
Environmental regulations prohibit the discharge of sodium sulfate as a process effluent
Large quantities of sodium sulfate are produced without being recycled within the sector
Projects in North America and Europe need solutions to effectively manage their sodium sulfate waste
The sodium sulfate is converted into sulfuric acid at 98% or higher and sodium hydroxide at 50%, reintegrated to reduce waste and optimize resources.
A viable, concrete solution for sodium sulfate management, creating a circular economy
High product concentrations enable their reintegration upstream in the value chain
Reduces waste, optimizes natural resources, and improves energy efficiency
A solution significantly more energy-efficient from the grid than similar processes.
