Strategic EU-India Collaboration Unveils Groundbreaking Recycling Initiative
In a landmark move under the EU-India Trade and Technology Council, BatX Energies and Germany's Rocklink GmbH have announced a strategic partnership. This collaboration aims to establish India's first fully integrated rare earth magnet recycling and refining ecosystem.

Building a Sustainable Critical Mineral Value Chain
The partnership is set to develop a sustainable critical mineral value chain between Europe and India. A key component of this initiative is the commissioning of a rare earth refining facility that adheres to zero-liquid-discharge (ZLD) norms and meets global export standards.
Innovative Technologies and Shared Intellectual Property
Together, BatX and Rocklink will co-develop and commercialize advanced solvent extraction (SX) technologies for the separation and purification of high-value rare earth elements. The alliance also plans to jointly file patents for these technologies in India and Europe, fostering a shared intellectual property base.
A Defining Moment for India's Rare Earth Self-Reliance
"This partnership marks a defining moment in India’s journey toward rare earth self-reliance," stated Utkarsh Singh, CEO of BatX Energies. Leonard Ansorge, Director at Rocklink GmbH, echoed this sentiment, highlighting the combination of materials and refining expertise with BatX's innovative approaches.
Enhancing Domestic Supply and Supporting Europe's Circular Economy
The project is poised to significantly enhance India's domestic rare earth supply capabilities while providing Europe with access to circular and sustainable sources of critical raw materials.
