About
The Hybrid Materials and Surfaces Research Group possesses extensive expertise in the design, development, and characterization of innovative post-lithium batteries (e.g., zinc, calcium) and sustainable battery recycling strategies (hydrometallurgy and direct recycling). We have coordinated and participated as partners in Horizon Europe Cluster 5 (CL5) and EIC Pathfinder projects, such as BeyondBattRec (https://www.beyondbattrec.eu/)
