Veolia Environnement SA (ENXTPA:VIE) is looking for acquisitions. Estelle Brachlianoff, Chief Executive Officer said, "And we will also seize acquisition opportunities to accelerate our development, such as those recently seen in Japan and the U.S. And since I mentioned lithium a few moments ago, I should say that we are also innovating here, as we've seen in the movie because we have developed a unique hydrometallurgy process that enables extraction of the precious cobalt, nickel and lithium from used batteries both from phones and electric vehicles".
