Rocklink India has established its first integrated recycling facility at the UPSIDC industrial area in Uttar Pradesh. The plant is designed to process lithium-ion batteries, rare earth magnets, and metal-bearing industrial waste to support material recovery and circular supply chains.
The facility has an initial lithium-ion battery recycling capacity of 10,000 tonnes per year and a rare earth magnet dismantling and processing capacity of 60 tonnes per month. The company plans to add a rare earth chloride processing line with a capacity of 1,500 tonnes per year in the first quarter of 2026.
The plant is EPR-registered and is equipped to handle 95 types of pre- and post-consumer battery scrap. Rocklink has also commissioned its lithium-ion recycling technology, R2, which processes battery scrap into components while removing volatile organic compounds.
The facility also recycles permanent magnet alloys such as NdFeB, SmCo, and AlNiCo used in motors, generators, and industrial equipment. Semi-automated processing lines are used to dismantle magnet assemblies and improve traceability and material recovery.
The company is collaborating with startups, stakeholders to improve dismantling methods and strengthen domestic supply chains for critical raw materials.
