Critical raw materials in Li-ion batteriesSeveral materials on the EU’s 2020 list of critical raw materia s are used in commercial Li-ion batteries. The most important ones are listed in Table 2. Bauxite is our prim ry source for the production of aluminium. Aluminium foil is used as the cat
nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), silicon (Si) and zinc (Zn). Of these materials, antimony, present in lead–acid batteries in vehicles and energy storage, and cobalt plus natural graphite, used in lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, are marked as critical in the 2017 list of critical raw materials.
Graphite is used as the anode material in lithium-ion batteries. It has the highest proportion by volume of all the battery raw materials and also represents a significant percentage of the costs of cell production.
High grade, high purity manganese is in growing demand for Li-ion batteries. Manganese is named after the region of “Magnesia” in Greece where the black mineral was found. Manganese is used to prevent steel corrosion and serves as cathode material in Li-ion, zinc-carbon and alkaline batteries.
The plant will recover 100 % of the lithium, nickel, manganese and cobalt, plus 90 % of the aluminum, copper and plastic . The plant is currently designed to recycle up to 3600 battery systems per year, which is the equivalent of around 1500 t of battery mass.
As not all battery materials, for example plastics and electrolytes, are represented in the data viewer, the sum of the weights of the individual materials does not equal the total battery weight.
