Lithium-Ion Battery Recycling in the Circular Economy
The number of wasted lithium-ion batteries is rising along with the use of these batteries in modern electronics including mobile devices, electric vehicles, and grid-scale electronic storage. Despite the fact that these batteries are valuable and recyclable, barely 5% of them are recycled because of many technical, financial, and other issues. Furthermore, a tenfold increase over current consumption is predicted for li-ion battery waste in the long run.
Economics and Challenges of Li-Ion Battery Recycling from End-of-Life Vehicles
Whereas rising demand for Li-ion batteries is depleting lithium, cobalt, and other metals at an exponential rate, it has created a slew of new problems:
