Every year, many waste batteries are thrown away without treatment, which is damaging to the environment. The commonly used new energy vehicle batteries are lithium cobalt acid battery, lithium iron phosphate (LIP) battery, NiMH battery, and ternary lithium battery.
The aqueous-based recycling method is called hydrometallurgy. In traditional hydrometallurgy, all the metals in an EV battery cell are dissolved in an inorganic acid. Then, you remove the "impurities" such as aluminium and copper. Lastly, you can separately recover valuable metals such as cobalt, nickel, manganese and lithium.
To reduce the risk in the crushing process of used lithium batteries, 10 used lithium batteries (weighing approximately 1 kg) were first immersed in a NaCl solution with a mass fraction of 20 % and fully discharged for 24 h.
Waste batteries can be utilized in a step-by-step manner, thus extending their life and maximizing their residual value, promoting the development of new energy, easing recycling pressure caused by the excessive number of waste batteries, and reducing the industrial cost of electric vehicles. The new energy vehicle industry will grow as a result.
