Batteries:

  • Development and optimisation of battery components: anode materials, cathode materials, electrolytes, binders, and SEIs.
  • Formulation and testing of materials in battery components.
  • Assembly and characterisation of complete cells and semi-cells.

Polymers, coatings and paints:

  • Development and optimisation of new formulations.
  • Formulation and development of coatings and paints.
  • Additive manufacturing and application methodologies.

Recycling of end-of-life vehicle components:

  • Technologies for the disassembly of vehicles, parts and components.
  • Conditioning, physical, chemical and biological recycling of polymeric fraction.
  • Recycling of electrical and electronic waste, selective recovery of valuable metals from black mass and vehicle components.

Digitization:

  • Digital Twins for monitoring installations and processes. Process optimisation, predictive maintenance.
  • Blockchain for end-to-end security and traceability of the supply chain and manufacturing orders.
  • Sensor network systems for parameter monitoring and on-line analysis: hyperspectral analysis, optical sensors for specific parameters, etc.

Sustainability analysis:

  • Life Cycle and Cost Cycle Analysis, and Social Life Cycle of products and processes.
  • Water and carbon footprint.
  • Environmental product declaration according to international standards.

We research processes for the selective recovery of valuable metals, test new electrochemical cells and develop sustainable materials for the mobility industry.
