From Services to High-Value Recovery: Scaling Veolia’s Industrial Footprint in Battery Recycling
As the demand for circular battery solutions transitions from theory to industrial reality, Veolia is deploying a robust infrastructure to secure the secondary raw materials supply chain. This session explores Veolia’s comprehensive operational network, focusing on our specialized pre-treatment units currently active in France, the UK, and Switzerland.
We will delve into our advanced industrial capabilities, highlighted by our dedicated hydrometallurgical plant in France, featuring a 7 kt/year capacity to process black mass into high-value battery components. Furthermore, the presentation will cover our strategic “white glove” service activities in the US, designed to manage complex end-of-life battery logistics and ensure safe, compliant routing to recycling streams.
By combining localized pre-treatment with high-capacity recovery and specialized services, Veolia provides a turnkey solution to meet both market demands and evolving regulatory requirements, effectively closing the loop for critical metals.
