World's leading trade fair for the manufacturing industry  /  April 20, 2026  -  April 24, 2026

Hannover Messe 2026

Hall 11, Booth B59 | Booth of the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR)

Meet us at Hannover Messe from April 20 to 24, 2026!

At HANNOVER MESSE, Fraunhofer ISC presents innovative solutions for a sustainable circular economy of lithium-ion batteries and provides insights into current developments in battery research in Würzburg. At the joint booth B59 of the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space in Hall 11, we will showcase two research projects focusing on resource-efficient battery recycling and precise state-of-health diagnostics of battery cells.

MADAM4Life Project: Ultrasonic Diagnostics for Long-lasting Batteries

In the MADAM4Life project, ISC in Würzburg is developing ultrasonic diagnostic methods for non-destructive testing of lithium-ion battery cells. The goal is to analyze material conditions and aging processes, thereby creating the foundation for improved lifetime predictions. The method aims to deliver more reliable assessments of the cell's state of charge and state of health during operation. This mechanical diagnostic approach also enables optimized production processes, longer-lasting and more sustainable batteries, and new opportunities for battery recycling in the future.

REWIND Project: Decoating Technology for High-Quality Material Recovery

In the REWIND project, Fraunhofer ISC is working on an innovative decoating system for the direct recycling of lithium-ion batteries. The water-based process enables selective separation of electrode materials from carrier foils while preserving their functional properties and material quality. The goal is to recover active materials from production scrap and end-of-life batteries, assess their quality, and directly reuse them in new cells. At the same time, the process reduces dependence on critical raw materials and supports compliance with recycled content requirements for new batteries.

Visit us from April 20 to 24, 2026 at Booth B59 in Hall 11 and learn more about sustainable materials, direct recycling strategies, and innovative analysis methods for lithium-ion batteries.


We look forward to meeting you there!
