About

Working as part of HolE-LIB project where the aim is to develop solvents and sorbents for selective Li recovery. The focus is on characterization, experimental evaluation of selectivity, extraction performance, feasibility study of the process and possibilities to recycle the materials. The specific research area is Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) and recycling of Electric Vehicle Lithium Ion Batteries with a focus on Lithium recovery.
