The benefits of Nano One's patented One-Pot process and M2CAM technology mainly attribute to the elimination of the traditional precursor steps (pCAM) by integrating them with the lithium addition step (CAM), high efficiency thermal processing, and the elimination of sodium sulphate wastewater. This is aimed at reducing complexity, cost, footprint, energy intensity, and greenhouse gas emissions compared to incumbent processes. This has the additional potential benefit of making One-Pot enabled CAM production facilities easier to site, permit, construct, and operate while decoupling from foreign supply chains of concern.
