The REVITALISE project aims to redefine the future of lithium and sodium ion battery recycling, emphasizing sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and minimal environmental impact. REVITALISE is set to deliver a holistic solution for green, low-cost, and environmentally friendly recycling processes, targeting a comprehensive range of battery materials. The project's overarching goal is to achieve recycling rates of 89% or more for waste processed from post-production scrap and end-of-life battery black mass.
Within this initiative, the REVITALISE Workshop is an event dedicated to innovation and sustainability in battery recycling, with a focus on hydrometallurgy, direct recovery, solvent development and simulation. The REVITALISE Workshop provides a unique platform to explore the latest advancements in the field and engage in dynamic discussions with leading experts in an effort to foster new ideas and collaborations to address the growing challenge of battery circularity.
Venue: University of Aveiro, Edifício Central e da Reitoria, Sala de Atos Académicos (Building 25)
Date: 21st of May 2026
