What the company doesAI summary of filing

Aqua Metals develops and is commercializing the AquaRefining process, a proprietary electrochemical recycling technology designed to recover metals from spent batteries. The company currently operates a pilot-scale lithium-ion battery recycling facility in Nevada, where it has demonstrated recovery of lithium, nickel, cobalt, copper, and manganese from battery black mass. Aqua Metals generates revenue primarily by selling recovered metals into global commodity markets and to battery manufacturers, though it has not yet commenced large-scale commercial operations. The company is in the pre-revenue stage for its lithium-ion battery recycling business, having previously operated a lead-acid battery demonstration facility from 2017 to 2019. [10-K 2026-03-31]
