H.C. Starck Tungsten has been recovering metallic and chemical raw materials such as tungsten and cobalt from secondary raw materials for more than one hundred years.

Drawing on this experience, we have developed an efficient and sustainable black mass recycling process that requires significantly less chemicals and energy than comparable methods, producing compounds of highest quality in line with the world’s most demanding environmental management system, EMAS.

This gives our customers the opportunity to become independent of scarce primary raw materials and to promote the development of a circular economy for lithium-ion batteries.

Would you also like to recover new battery raw materials from black mass? Then H.C. Starck Tungsten is your partner of choice.
