Utvikling og optimalisering av kritiske råvarer og tilsetningsstoffer for batteriindustrien

Offentlig prosjektsammendrag

The main goal of the project is to develop, optimize, and produce battery-grade CNT and other carbon allotrops tailored for unique battery chemistries. This entails addressing critical R&D challenges as to control basicity, temperature, catalyst and process rates. The achieved fundamental know-how will guide BCS to optimizing the CNT morphology and give well-defined powder. The various powder quality will be tested in product development program with potential customers. The work will in parallel demonstrate consistency in process and product, and develop scalability for each targeted battery chemistry. Central to the project is the utilization of CO2 as a feedstock, making a significant change from conventional production methods and underscoring a commitment to sustainability by using flue gas. By harnessing CO2 emissions to produce carbon materials, the aim is to reduce environmental impact and supply critical raw materials for the battery industry in Europe and around the world.
