Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. is a Canada-based global lithium-ion battery resource recovery company and pure-play lithium-ion battery recycler. The Companyâs patent-protected Spoke & Hub Technologies provides a solution to recycle all different types of lithium-ion batteries. At its Spokes, or pre-processing facilities, the Company recycles battery manufacturing scrap and end-of-life batteries to produce black mass, a powder-like substance, which contains various valuable metals, including lithium, nickel and cobalt. At its Spokes, lithium-ion batteries of all formats, chemistries and states of charge are processed through a mechanical process, which results materials into two main product lines: battery materials (black mass) and mixed copper/aluminum. At its Hubs, or post-processing facilities, the Company processes black mass to produce critical battery-grade materials, including lithium carbonate, nickel sulfate and cobalt sulfate.
