Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries are broadly used in the automotive industry, particularly in electric vehicles (EVs), due to their low cost, high capacity, long cycle life, and safety . Since the demand for EVs and energy storage solutions has increased, LFP has been proven to be an essential raw material for Li-ion batteries .
In recent years, lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries in electric vehicles have significantly increased concerns over potential environmental threats. Besides reducing environmental pollution, recycling valuable materials is crucial for resource utilization.
(77) The recovery rates for lithium are expected to be 50% by 2027 and 80% by 2031. (78) It is therefore crucial to minimize the use of toxic substances within LIB materials in order to improve recyclability and reduce the number of process steps.
As a result of this study, a new method for separating and recovering LiFePO 4 and graphite electrode materials from spent LFP batteries has been developed. A sustainable closed-loop recycling and reusing process was provided in this study, thus protecting the environment and conserving resources.
(78) It is therefore crucial to minimize the use of toxic substances within LIB materials in order to improve recyclability and reduce the number of process steps. The occurrence of fluorine as well as PFAS in LIBs pose numerous challenges during the recycling process.
