Seval has opened a new production facility in Colico, Lecco, for treating lithium-ion batteries, the first stage of a €30 million industrial plan partly funded by PNRR. The facility, using Duesenfeld technology, will discharge, inertize, and grind batteries to produce black mass, a powder rich in lithium, cobalt, and nickel. Two such facilities, one also in Balvano, Potenza, will each process 15,000 tonnes of lithium-ion batteries per year.
Seval, with 500 employees and nine production plants, aims to become one of Europe's main black mass producers, with a current turnover of €130 million and annual treatment capacity of 180,000 tonnes of waste.
