Metso Outotec Corp. (Helsinki, Finland) has signed an agreement with Li-Cycle North America Hub Inc. for the supply of manganese, cobalt, and nickel solvent extraction technology for a battery recycling plant to be built in Rochester, New York, United States.

The Metso Outotec delivery includes three modular VSF X solvent extraction plants and related Dual Media Filters, and basic engineering.

The Li-Cycle project will be an important new reference for Metso Outotec in the battery recycling business,” says Jari Ålgars, President of the Metals business area at Metso Outotec.
