Battery Projects

The call to action to “make oil history” has prompted me to work with a team of exceptionally talented people to pursue their vision for a better world for us and generations after us. As project manager, electrical, automation, and process utilities expert, I was pleased to participate in this innovative project.

The battery recycling business presented a different opportunity in regard to the completion of the life cycle of batteries, as known materials were to be extracted, processed and recycled. This was an innovative idea, which could change the way batteries were disposed of and incinerated, and in broad terms led towards a circular economy.

Given my interdisciplinary specializations in some of which battery recycling falls, I was instrumental in formulating the design and implementation of battery recycling technological process. This concerned organizing and controlling a number of interrelated activities, namely, battery collection, sorting and further raw materials recovery processes. Every single aspect was well thought out in order to optimize the material recovery while reducing the waste produced and ensuring the sustainability of the entire process.

At every stage of development, I worked with an excellent and a multinational team of engineers, scientists and other specialists who contributed to the project from their own angle and expertise.

In unison, we traversed the many layers contained in the infancy of this industry warding off prioritizing the technology, perfecting the distribution aspect, and coming up with new ways of achieving recycling with minimal damage to the environment and fast.

Eventually, I realized the change that our work was making. The success of our initiative on the recycling of batteries did not only serve to mitigate the problem of battery waste, it also fulfilled the mission of promoting the sustainable use of resources. By working on the restoration of the second cycle of batteries we also worked towards the main goal – a responsible society where materials are consumed and used again in their best sense.

This experience has been both gratifying and almost overwhelming competed with. It has been wonderful to be part of a group engaged in the quest to “make oil history” for the good of future generations. I embrace the success that we have achieved and look forward to furthering the innovation and sustainable development in battery recycling.
