Acquisition of equipment : The project aims to implement production processes that will enable a graphite mining company to manufacture value-added products for use as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries.
The project aims to develop and validate a coating process that is efficient, competitive and should meet the demand of the Lithium-ion battery market. The whole process may be included in a carbon neutrality framework.
Nouveau Monde Graphite wants to put in place a new purification approach using renewable resources such as hydroélectricité du Québec, reducing the generation of tailings.
The design of an electric propulsion system for heavy mining vehicles is underway, as well as the development of a battery technology and a fast charging infrastructure adapted to the mining context.
The spheronized graphite coating project, called "D-COAT", consists in setting up a coating demonstration unit by the end of 2021. This process consists of applying a thin layer of amorphous carbon, in the nanometer range, to the surface of purified spheronized graphite from one of its demonstration plants, in order to improve its properties and obtain the yields sought by lithium-ion battery manufacturers.
