Abstract

Summary Recycling of spent lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is an urgent need to address their environmental and global sustainability issues. Here, we report an efficient and environmentally benign LIB regeneration method based on defect-targeted healing, which represents a paradigm-shift LIB recycling strategy. Specifically, by combining low-temperature aqueous solution relithiation and rapid post-annealing, we demonstrate successful direct regeneration of spent LiFePO4 (LFP) cathodes, one of the most important materials for EVs and grid storage applications. We show revitalization of composition, structure, and electrochemical performance of LFP with various degradation conditions to the same levels as the pristine LFP. Life-cycle analysis of different LIB recycling processes shows that this defect-targeted direct reycling approach can significantly reduce energy usage and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, leading to more economic and environmental benefits compared with today's hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical methods.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
