A Battery Problem No One Talked About

Every year, tons of batteries from electric vehicles, mobile devices, and machines are thrown away. These old batteries still had life left but ended up polluting landfills. Recycling was rare, and reusing was even rarer. The waste was harmful to the planet, and the cost of new batteries was high. There had to be a better way.

Turning Waste into Worth

The founders of Lohum noticed this silent crisis and chose to act. They believed that used lithium-ion batteries could be recycled or reused in a smart way. Starting with basic tools and big dreams, they aimed to build a battery reuse and recycling ecosystem that could reduce waste and save money.

Facing the Heat

Working with batteries is complex. They had to test for safety, performance, and purity. Many said it couldn’t be done at scale. Investors hesitated. Finding skilled people and building reliable recycling processes was slow and costly. But the Lohum team didn’t stop. They kept improving the tech, one battery at a time.

Tech That Gives Batteries a Second Life

Lohum developed a system to safely recover materials like lithium, cobalt, and nickel, and also refurbish batteries for reuse. Their tech made it cheaper and cleaner than mining new materials. These repurposed batteries were then used in solar storage, e-rickshaws, and more. It became a win-win for both economy and environment.

Leading the Clean Battery Revolution

Today, Lohum is one of India’s leading battery circular economy startups. They’ve saved tons of battery waste from landfills and reduced the need for new mining. Their work supports sustainability, clean energy, and a greener planet. From waste to wealth, they’ve sparked a quiet but powerful movement.
