Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A Canadian start-up has recognised the risks posed by the lack of end-of-life management available for the rapidly growing number of lithium-ion batteries in the global economy and is seeking to provide a profitable solution. Canadian battery recycling business Li-Cycle is the brainchild of two entrepreneurial engineers, aimed at solving the rapidly growing global lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery waste problem. Ajay Kochhar, a chemical engineering graduate and CEO of Li-Cycle, and Tim Johnston, a trained mechanical engineer and the company's market and technical advisor, decided to found the business when both were working at global consultancy firm, Hatch. Observing the need to transition away from a carbon-based economy in order to slow and reverse the effects of climate change, the pair viewed electrification and cost-effective battery storage as central to this shift.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
