The batteries inside drones are among the most hazardous components to dispose of. REFPV serves Hartford with specialized lithium battery recycling — including safe discharge, cell separation, and hydrometallurgical recovery of critical minerals. Our facilities recover lithium carbonate, cobalt sulfate, and nickel for reuse in new battery production.
Drone recycling recovers critical minerals that would otherwise require destructive mining operations. From Hartford's recycled drones, we extract copper, cobalt, lithium, and rare earth elements. According to USGS data, a kilogram of drone circuit boards can contain more gold than a metric ton of gold ore — making recovery economically and environmentally essential.
