METHODS OF RECYCLING LITHIUM ION BATTERIES

Abstract:
Lithium ion batteries are widely used in portable electronic devices, electric vehicles and renewable energy storage. They can be harmful to the environment if disposed of improperly. Recycling lithium ion batteries is an important solution to reduce their impact on the environment. Currently, there are several methods of recycling lithium ion batteries, including chemical recycling and physical recycling. Chemical recycling involves dismantling batteries and separating the components through chemical reactions such as hydrolysis and pyrolysis. These methods can be effective in recovering precious metals such as nickel, cobalt and manganese, but they are expensive and energy intensive. On the other hand, physical recycling involves the use of different technologies to separate battery components according to their physical properties, such as density and magnetism. These technologies include gravimetric separation, flotation separation and magnetic separation. Physical recycling methods are less expensive and more environmentally friendly, but may be less effective in recovering precious metals. In general, the recycling of lithium-ion batteries is an important solution for protecting the environment and conserving natural resources. However, continued efforts are needed to improve recycling methods and increase public awareness of the importance of battery recycling.
