International Journal of Green Energy Publishes Peer-Reviewed Paper Describing American Manganese's Closed Loop Battery Recycling Process

Closed-Loop Method Reduces Operational Costs and Eliminates Environmental Impacts of Wastewater

Successfully Demonstrated and Validated at Different Scales Using Practical Operating Conditions

American Manganese Inc. (TSXV:AMY)(OTCQB:AMYZF)(FSE:2AM) ("AMY" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the detailed technical paper, ‘A Novel Closed Loop Process for Recycling Spent Lithium-ion Battery Cathode Materials' has been submitted, reviewed, and published in the International Journal of Green Energy, a peer-reviewed journal that publishes papers on energy, energy conversion, energy management, and energy conservation, particularly in advanced, sustainable, and green energy technologies

The publication describes the experimental work conducted by the American Manganese's R&D contractor, Kemetco Research, to develop one of AMY's potential recycling flowsheets. The abstract can be viewed at the following link: A Novel Closed Loop Process for Recycling Spent Lithium-ion Battery Cathode Materials - Taylor & Francis.

"The International Journal of Green Energy is a highly respected journal, and we are extremely proud that our research in lithium-ion battery cathode material recycling is recognized and validated by people with expertise in this field," said Larry Reaugh, President and CEO of American Manganese. "As a pioneer in novel and advanced lithium-ion battery cathode recycling technology, all of us at AMY pride ourselves on our transparency and structured development plans using real science."

Common hydrometallurgical processes were recognized to experience significant obstacles during their impurity removal and metal extraction stages due to the chemical reagents used. This common practice results in a contaminated solution that needs to be treated before discharge or reuse. Therefore, further complicating the hydrometallurgical recycling process and generating wastewater.

In comparison, the publication concludes that the novel process can extract lithium, nickel, cobalt, and manganese while regenerating key process reagents for re-use, therefore creating a closed-loop process. The regeneration of key process reagents for re-use in processing steps such as leaching, precipitation, and impurity removal, can reduce operational costs and eliminate the environmental impacts of contaminated solutions. This process has been successfully demonstrated and validated through recycling experiments at three different scales using practical operating conditions.

Westport Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Westport Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Westport Fuel Systems Inc. (" Westport ") (TSX:WPRT Nasdaq:WPRT), a leading supplier of advanced alternative fuel systems and components for the global transportation industry, reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024, and provided an update on operations. All figures are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated.

"Westport delivered solid results in the third quarter of 2024. Although revenue was down, this decrease was more than outweighed by the revenue earned at Cespira and we delivered significant improvement in Adjusted EBITDA. We continue to execute against our three strategic pillars - harnessing the potential of our HPDI joint venture, enhancing operational excellence, and driving continuous innovation to shape the world's alternative fueled future. The third quarter represented the first full quarter with Cespira, our HPDI joint venture with Volvo Group, being operational. This, along with the steps we have taken with respect to various cost cutting measures, has enabled Westport to decrease our costs including research and development as well as sales, general and administrative expenses by approximately 40 percent as compared to the same period last year.
