Rocklink's Advanced Recycling Technology

Located in Sikandrabad, Uttar Pradesh, the plant uses Rocklink's R2 recycling technology. This process recovers over 98% of metals like aluminum, copper, and iron, producing high-purity "black mass." This material is essential for extracting lithium, nickel, and cobalt – key battery components that are hard to source locally in India.

Recycling Permanent Magnets and More

The facility also recycles permanent magnets, such as NdFeB, SmCo, and AlNiCo alloys, which are vital for EV motors and industrial machinery. Rocklink is bringing its European Magcycle reverse logistics model to India to simplify the collection of magnet scrap.

Addressing India's Growing Battery Waste

India is expected to generate over 100,000 tonnes of Li-ion battery waste annually by 2030, making Rocklink's facility crucial. The company also plans to integrate battery refurbishment for cell reuse, aiming to extend lifecycles and lower the need for new raw materials. A separate 1,500 TPA rare earth chloride processing line is set to begin operations in Q1 2026 to handle further downstream processing.
