Dry coating is a promising process for making production more sustainable, efficient and economical. TU Braunschweig is involved in the ProLiT research project with its Institute of Particle Technology.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_80637\" style=\"width: 1250px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-80637\" class=\"wp-image-80637 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Magazin_Whitepaper_ProLiT_titel.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1240\" height=\"1584\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-80637\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Title of the white paper: \u2018Industrialisation concept for the dry coating of battery cathodes\u2019. Image credits: Marcella Nickl<\/p><\/div>\n<p>In contrast to conventional wet coating processes, dry coating completely eliminates the use of solvents. This eliminates the need for conventional drying processes and associated solvent recovery, which reduces energy consumption during the electrode production process. As a result, the technology offers both ecological and economic advantages and makes an important contribution to more sustainable battery cell production.<\/p>\n<p>In the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tu-braunschweig.de\/en\/ipat\/research\/battery-process-technology\/current-research-projects\/prolit\">ProLiT project, short for \u2018Process and Material Development of Lithium-Ion Battery Cathodes for Large-Scale Dry Coating,\u2019<\/a> an industrialisation concept for this innovative manufacturing process was developed. The consortium brings together partners from science and industry \u2013 from material and equipment manufacturers to cell producers. Together, the team investigated how material, process and plant technology can be coordinated in such a way that the calender gap-based dry coating process for battery cathodes can be transferred from the laboratory to the production scale.<\/p>\n<p>The result is a concept for an industrial production line for manufacturing battery cells with a total storage capacity of 1 GWh per year. The concept exemplifies how the technology can be implemented in so-called gigafactories in the future. It offers valuable insights into the battery production of tomorrow \u2013 resource-efficient, scalable and ready for the energy transition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technische Universit\u00e4t Braunschweig, together with partners, has presented a white &#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":43,"featured_media":80636,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","class_list":["post-80669","kb_presseinformation","type-kb_presseinformation","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","kb_cat_presse-research","kb_tags-energy","kb_tags-production","kb_tags-transfer-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Dry coating: paving the way for sustainable battery factories - TU Braunschweig | Blogs<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Technische Universit\u00e4t Braunschweig, together with partners, has presented a white paper that systematically examines and evaluates the dry coating of\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/en\/pi-post\/dry-coating-paving-the-way-for-sustainable-battery-factories\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Dry coating: paving the way for sustainable battery factories - TU Braunschweig | Blogs\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Technische Universit\u00e4t Braunschweig, together with partners, has presented a white paper that systematically examines and evaluates the dry coating of\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/en\/pi-post\/dry-coating-paving-the-way-for-sustainable-battery-factories\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TU Braunschweig | Blogs\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-01-30T08:26:45+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Magazin_Whitepaper_ProLiT_teaser.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1500\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1000\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\\\/en\\\/pi-post\\\/dry-coating-paving-the-way-for-sustainable-battery-factories\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\\\/en\\\/pi-post\\\/dry-coating-paving-the-way-for-sustainable-battery-factories\\\/\",\"name\":\"Dry coating: paving the way for sustainable battery factories - TU Braunschweig | Blogs\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\\\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\\\/en\\\/pi-post\\\/dry-coating-paving-the-way-for-sustainable-battery-factories\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\\\/en\\\/pi-post\\\/dry-coating-paving-the-way-for-sustainable-battery-factories\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/01\\\/Magazin_Whitepaper_ProLiT_teaser.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2026-01-29T10:59:35+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2026-01-30T08:26:45+00:00\",\"description\":\"Technische Universit\u00e4t Braunschweig, together with partners, has presented a white paper that systematically examines and evaluates the dry coating of\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\\\/en\\\/pi-post\\\/dry-coating-paving-the-way-for-sustainable-battery-factories\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\\\/en\\\/pi-post\\\/dry-coating-paving-the-way-for-sustainable-battery-factories\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\\\/en\\\/pi-post\\\/dry-coating-paving-the-way-for-sustainable-battery-factories\\\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/01\\\/Magazin_Whitepaper_ProLiT_teaser.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/01\\\/Magazin_Whitepaper_ProLiT_teaser.jpg\",\"width\":1500,\"height\":1000,\"caption\":\"Trockenbeschichtungsanlage mit Pulverdosierung und Mehrwalzenkalander.
