Engineering Doctorate Programme
Technology Minerals Plc (LSE: TM1), the first listed UK company
focused on creating a sustainable circular economy for battery
metals, is pleased to announce that its 48.25% owned battery
recycling business, Recyclus Group Ltd ("Recyclus"), has confirmed
its planned Engineering Doctorate programme at the first of its UK
industrial scale lithium-ion ("Li-ion") battery recycling
operations based in Wolverhampton, UK.
Alex Brandon-Bravo has been appointed to join the four-year
Engineering Doctorate (EngD) research degree at the Recyclus
operation in Wolverhampton under the supervision of the University
of Warwick . Recyclus Group has been working with the Warwick
Manufacturing Group ("WMG") at the University of Warwick,
addressing challenges across the battery recycling sector whilst
further developing the UK's capability to recycle Li-Ion batteries
to 'black mass'.
Starting in July 2023, Alex will be undertaking several projects
at Recyclus, focusing on the application of scientific knowledge to
solve real problems in a business environment. His expertise will
improve processes and productivity, as well as advance the
company's understanding of recycled waste and the products
recovered.
Alex is a First-Class Honours graduate from the University of
Bath with an MSci in Natural Sciences, majoring in Physics with a
minor in Physical Chemistry and Biology. He has significant
experience within the science sector, including an internship at
CERN in Switzerland, and has worked for the NHS and Civil Service
in science, research and statistics, along with a passion for
environmentalism and sustainability.
The Wolverhampton Li-ion battery recycling plant, which recently
received clearance from the Environment Agency ("EA") to commence
full operations, has the potential to recycle up to 8,300 tonnes of
Li-ion batteries in the first year of operation based on a single
operating shift, five days per week. It will be the first
industrial-scale plant in the UK with the capability to recycle
Li-ion batteries.
Robin Brundle, Chairman of Technology Minerals, said: "We are
delighted to welcome Alex to the Recyclus team. With the global
demand for Li-ion batteries increasing, we are committed to
providing industrial-scale battery recycling solutions across all
sectors which are transitioning to circular economy supply chains.
Alex's technical knowledge and experience are first-class. He will
be working with our technical team alongside our R&D partners
at WMG, as we continue to develop our technologies in this crucial
area of battery recycling and strive for even greater innovation.
We look forward to working with Alex across our different
projects."
