Industrial vacuum solutions for Black Mass recovery and safety in lithium battery production
In the lithium battery supply chain, dust management is both a critical challenge and a business opportunity. From cell production to Black Mass recovery, Delfin offers vacuum systems designed to the highest safety (ATEX) and efficiency standards. We ensure the safe recovery of high-value materials like NMC powders, protecting operators from reactive and toxic dust through absolute filtration and safe-change (BIBO) systems.
Systems for localized collection of dust such as graphite and metal oxides during dosing, mixing, and coating.
Our technology prevents the dispersion of particles and contaminants, maintaining controlled production conditions and optimizing the management of process waste.
Compact vacuum systems for the continuous removal of micro-scraps, residual particles, and metal fumes during cell stacking and soldering. Solutions that can be integrated into automated lines, ensuring clean manufacturing standards and high-quality final components.
Safety and material recovery in battery recycling
High-efficiency industrial vacuuming for capturing fine dust and black mass (lithium, nickel, manganese, cobalt) generated during crushing. Our systems reduce the risk of airborne accumulation, improving operational safety and control of materials recovered for recycling.
Localized extraction of metal fumes and micro-spray generated by welding. We protect sensitive cell components and safeguard operator health by reducing particulate deposits.
Instant collection of cutting scraps and metal shavings during insertion into the pouch or container. The integrated vacuum system prevents buildup that could compromise line efficiency.
Continuous capture of black mass and ultra-fine dust generated by the grinders. This critical phase requires high-efficiency vacuuming to prevent explosive atmospheres and safely handle light fractions.
Handling of ultrafine dusts containing lithium, nickel, and cobalt. Strategic vacuum extraction ensures the purity of recovered fractions, ATEX safety, and health protection against highly reactive and high-value dusts.

FAQ
Black mass is an ultra-fine powder composed of lithium, cobalt, and nickel recovered from battery recycling. It requires vacuum cleaners with HEPA absolute filtration and protected exhaust systems to prevent dispersion and maximize its commercial value.
Many materials used (such as graphite) and electrolyte residues are highly flammable or explosive. Delfin’s ATEX systems eliminate ignition sources, ensuring safety during the handling of these critical powders.
The BIBO system allows for filter replacement and the discharge of toxic dust without the operator ever coming into contact with the material. It is essential in the battery sector for the safe handling of active materials and hazardous residues.
