The latest recycling technology and equipment for scrap lithium batteries
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are already the preferred choice for energy storage in modern portable consumer electronics such as laptops, smartphones or tablets. Moreover, as the most attractive battery technology for pure electric and hybrid vehicles, LIB is also widely used in private and industrial applications. Therefore, in view of the widespread use of Li-ion batteries, there is a need to recover and reuse their components. In addition, spent Li-ion batteries typically contain 5–20% cobalt (Co), 5–10% nickel (Ni), 5–7% lithium (Li), 5–10% other metals (copper (Cu), aluminum ( Al), iron (Fe), etc.), considering the economic value of high nickel, copper or cobalt content, it is also very necessary to carry out the recovery of lithium ion battery components.
Lithium-ion battery module recycling includes two main processes: battery module discharge and disassembly. The battery is discharged before manual removal, primarily to ensure personnel safety and eliminate the risk of electric shock. Battery disassembly mainly involves disconnecting major components such as cables, battery cells, frames, electronics, etc. Usually during battery disassembly, thermal pretreatment methods are applied to safely deactivate the flammable components of the battery's electrolyte.
After the battery is disassembled, mechanical pretreatment is first required. Mechanical pretreatment is used to break down the battery and separate specific components into several streams, the main scope is to separate the metal particles (casing, copper and aluminum foil) and to concentrate the black matter, which is a mixture of positive and negative active materials and is the most valuable battery components. Therefore, mechanical pretreatment is primarily aimed at achieving maximum recovery and separation. Followed by mechanical treatment, mechanical treatment includes crushing, screening, magnetic separation, crushing, grading and other processes.
Lithium-ion battery recycling is an emerging field that could undergo major changes as processes are updated.
