Dry Room Design Guide for Lithium Battery Manufacturing

Dry rooms needed for manufacturing lithium based batteries are not simply modified "clean rooms" or large "environmental chambers". John Pinho, President of NeoTech explains.

Manufacturing lithium‑ion batteries is a complicated technical process that has many challenges - not the least of which is the requirement for all processing of the lithium electrodes for the battery cells to be done under very low humidity conditions - typically below 1% RH (- 35°C to -40°C dew point) and must also be a low particulate environment. These important requirements demand that the dry room be hermetically sealed from the . . .
