 CirculorJessica GreenPublic Affairs and Strategy Director Small Business Other Supply chain traceability to demonstrate proof of North American materials and componentsCirculor is a global leader in supply chain traceability, enabling companies to gain end-to-end visibility into their supply chains, with a particular focus on traceability of critical minerals and battery components.

Circulor’s technology enables companies to prove the origin and material journey of minerals and materials from miner or recycler to final product—i.e. electric vehicle battery.

We do this by tracking the physical flow of materials as they change chemical and physical state from raw to final product with traceability enabled at every production step to create a reliable digital chain of custody. Using Circulor’s solutions, customers can prove a material’s provenance, material journey, and the product’s contribution of value in North America or U.S. Free Trade Agreement countries. Customers can also gain visibility into potential supply chain risks, like the involvement of Foreign Entities of Concern, high emission producers, or unethical labor practices in their upstream activities.

Since 2017, Circulor has established the most proven and mature solution for tracking and tracing critical minerals for electric vehicle batteries, including provenance, production flow, GHG emissions, and ESG credentials of cobalt, nickel, lithium, mica, copper, manganese, and graphite, to name a few.

We are the technology leader for the German Government’s Battery Pass project which is the leading global project that is defining and demonstrating the requirements of the European Union’s newly enacted Battery Regulation. We already work at scale with numerous OEMs in their EV battery supply chains, including Volvo Cars, Polestar, Volkswagen, Daimler, and BMW.

 Hazmat Safety Consulting, LLCRobert RichardPresident Small Business Transportation Lithium battery safety through propagation resistanceHazmat Safety Consulting, LLC and Packaging and Crating Technology, Inc. have developed a state-of-the-art material called “THERMOSHIELD” to prevent the thermal propagation of cells and between cells in a lithium battery pack. The material can limit the intensity of a reaction and prevent propagation between cells thereby reducing the amount of heat, fire, ejecta and flammable and toxic gas that is generated when a single cell in a battery pack experiences a failure either from external damage or an internal manufacturing flaw. In particular, the advantage of preventing thermal propagation from occurring within a battery is that independent of the energy density or number of cells in a battery the total energy released is restricted to a single cell or battery. The THERMOSHIELD material will both contain and extinguish thermal runaway and, as a result, there will be significantly less heat, flame, ejecta and hazardous gas generated which further mitigates the consequence of thermal runaway.

The technology is innovative in that it harnesses the high capacity of a vaporizing coolant in combination with barrier materials for absorbing the energy released in battery fires. Efforts by others have centered on using insulation or melting phase transitions to contain the heat generated by thermal runaway, however these methods have proven insufficient to effectively prevent propagation. The THERMOSHIELD is made from a heat sealable material, liquid and a wick material. Commercial hardware is not available to undertake mass production therefore PACT is submitting this proposal to seek a grant to demonstrate the effectiveness of designing large format EV and energy storage batteries and commercializing the technology for mass production of safer batteries.

 Accella AITina BaumgartnerVP of Business Development Small Business Advanced manufacturing AI for Battery ManufactureAccella AI is a small company located in California. We have developed AI-based solutions for quality control, esp. visual inspection, as well as predictive analytics and maintenance, and HMI simplification.
Our industry focus is on battery manufacturing, so far we have developed QC and predictive maintenance (PDM) solutions for a world-leading manufacturer of primary batteries that has increased the accuracy of their defect detection to over 99.99%, allowed them to inspect 100% of batteries, reduced the cost of the hardware needed by 75%, and allowed them to implement optimized slurry pump maintenance that prevents unplanned downtime.
Our AI-based solutions are developed with engineers and technicians on the shopfloor in mind, are easy to manage and roll out.
We are interested in partnering with a manufacturer of secondary batteries with the goal of building - based on the existing, industry-strength solution - a complete, integrated AI-based QC and predictive maintenance system that monitors quality from raw input materials to palettizing the final product and monitors all critical pieces of equipment along the entire production to minimize maintenance cost, optimizes maintenance schedules and significantly reduces unplanned downtime.
The benefits of such a system are lower cost of quality, reduced scrap, lower cost of maintenance, higher-quality products, and more sustainable processes e.g. through AI-driven optimization of energy consumption in production. Developing such an integrated QC-PDM solution will increase the competitiveness of US battery manufacturers.
