Stanford University recently released a lifecycle analysis study on Redwood Materials’ Northern Nevada campus.
According to Stanford’s research, Redwood’s innovative approach utilizes 80% less energy, cuts CO2 emissions by 70%, and reduces water use by 80% compared to traditional mining. Redwood goes to great lengths in its process ensures that no waste goes to landfill, and processed water is recycled.
According to Stanford, Redwood’s recycling methods produce at least 40% fewer emissions than other recyclers and are highly scalable, capable of processing over 40,000 metric tons annually.
Redwood is pioneering new standards of new materials production through recycling as the first U.S. facility to serve as both a nickel “mine” and the only commercial-scale lithium source in decades.
