With the significant rise in the application of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in electromobility, the amount of spent LIBs is also increasing. LIB recycling technologies which conserve sustainable resources and protect the environment need to be developed for achieving a circular economy.
Understanding the environmental impact of electric vehicle batteries is crucial for a low-carbon future. This study examined the energy use and emissions of current and future battery technologies using nickel-manganese-cobalt and lithium-iron-phosphate.
Strong growth in lithium-ion battery (LIB) demand requires a robust understanding of both costs and environmental impacts across the value-chain. Recent announcements of LIB manufacturers to venture into cathode active material (CAM) synthesis and recycling expands the process segments under their influence.
Over 60% of lithium produced in 2019 were utilised for the manufacture of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), the compact and high-density energy storage devices crucial for low-carbon emission electric-based vehicles (EVs) and secondary storage media for renewable energy sources like solar and wind.
Moreover, the skyrocketing demand projected for lithium and cobalt could make LIBs recycling more profitable and economically viable as a stand-alone industry (Dewulf et al., 2010, Manivannan, 2016, Wei et al., 2018). 4.1. Global status of end-of-life lithium-ion battery recycling
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are currently the leading energy storage systems in BEVs and are projected to grow significantly in the foreseeable future. They are composed of a cathode, usually containing a mix of lithium, nickel, cobalt, and manganese; an anode, made of graphite; and an electrolyte, comprised of lithium salts.
