Black mass, the key intermediate product of battery recycling, is increasingly subject to regulatory controls as countries look to secure critical mineral feedstock domestically.

At the start of August, the US government announced plans to implement a one-year export restriction on black mass amongst other critical minerals.

Benchmark’s webinar on black mass export restrictions will explore regional approaches to black mass and critical mineral security, putting recent developments in context, alongside evolving trade flows and pricing dynamics.

This session will cover:

  • What the new US export ban means for North American recyclers

  • How other regions like Europe, China and India are reshaping trade flows

  • How policy is impacting prices and recycling economics

  • What’s next for battery recycling over the next 12 months
