Opportunities to Improve Recycling of Automotive Lithium Ion Batteries
Open accessAbstract
A high recovery of lithium from recycled lithium ion batteries (LIBs) is essential to ensure the growth and sustainability of the electrical vehicle market. Without recycling, lithium demand is predicted to outstrip supply in 2023. Current industrial processes are focused on recovering cobalt and other valuable metals because, given lithium's current low price, it is economically unfavorable to recover it. As part of our efforts to create a process where the recovery of lithium is economically viable we have analyzed the current industrial processes. We have determined that, when applied to recycling automotive LIBs, they are needlessly energy intensive and complicated. In these processes whole LIBs are incinerated, cryogenically cooled, or shredded under an inert atmosphere in order to make their cells safe to open. Instead of such extreme measures, LIBs can be disassembled by automated processes, which recovers valuable electronics for reuse, their cells can be discharged, which recovers residual energy, and then can be opened safely in air.

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.
