Toward Direct Regeneration of Spent Lithium-Ion Batteries: A Next-Generation Recycling Method

Chemical Reviews, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 124(5), P. 2839 - 2887

Published: March 1, 2024

The popularity of portable electronic devices and electric vehicles has led to the drastically increasing consumption lithium-ion batteries recently, raising concerns about disposal recycling spent batteries. However, rate worldwide at present is extremely low. Many factors limit promotion battery rate: outdated technology most critical one. Existing metallurgy-based methods rely on continuous decomposition extraction steps with high-temperature roasting/acid leaching processes many chemical reagents. These are tedious worse economic feasibility, products mostly alloys or salts, which can only be used as precursors. To simplify process improve benefits, novel in urgent demand, direct recycling/regeneration therefore proposed a next-generation method. Herein, comprehensive review origin, current status, prospect provided. We have systematically analyzed summarized their limitations, pointing out necessity developing methods. A detailed analysis for discussions advantages, obstacles conducted. Guidance future toward large-scale industrialization well green efficient systems also

Toward Circular Energy: Exploring Direct Regeneration for Lithium‐Ion Battery Sustainability

Advanced Materials, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 36(32)

Published: May 25, 2024

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are rapidly developing into attractive energy storage technologies. As LIBs gradually enter retirement, their sustainability is starting to come focus. The utilization of recycled spent as raw materials for battery manufacturing imperative resource and environmental sustainability. depends on the recycling process, whereby cycling must be maximized while minimizing waste emissions consumption. Although LIB technologies (hydrometallurgy pyrometallurgy) have been commercialized a large scale, they unavoidable limitations. They incompatible with circular economy principles because require toxic chemicals, emit hazardous substances, consume amounts energy. direct regeneration degraded electrode from viable alternative traditional nondestructive repair technology. Furthermore, offers advantages such maximization value materials, use sustainable, nontoxic reagents, high potential profitability, significant application potential. Therefore, this review aims investigate state-of-the-art that can extended large-scale applications.

Insight of Synthesis of Single Crystal Ni‐Rich LiNi_1−x−yCo_xMn_yO₂ Cathodes

Advanced Energy Materials, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(11)

Published: Jan. 26, 2024

Abstract Single‐crystal Ni‐rich LiNi 1−x−y Co x Mn y O 2 (NCM) cathodes have garnered widespread attention in the lithium‐ion battery community due to their unique advantages mechanical performance and ability minimize interfacial electrochemical side reactions. The synthesis of single‐crystal materials with monodisperse appropriate size, minimal lattice defects, highly ordered structures is key for high‐performance batteries. However, achieving this goal poses challenges lack in‐depth understanding regarding specific experimental parameters solid reaction mechanism during process. In review, aim provide an analysis critical process involved impact on crystal morphology, structure, performance. Consequently, first section focuses effect precursor lithium salt, atmosphere, sintering procedure. second section, study delves into discussion growth mechanism. Lastly, it concluded by highlighting prospects associated application NCM cathodes.

The strategic role of lithium in the green energy transition: Towards an OPEC-style framework for green energy-mineral exporting countries (GEMEC)

Resources Policy, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 90, P. 104737 - 104737

Published: Feb. 5, 2024

The energy sector is currently undergoing a transition towards increased utilization of green technologies. relies heavily on metals, such as aluminium, chromium, cobalt, copper, lithium, manganese, nickel, rare earth elements (REEs), silicon, tin, titanium, tungsten and zinc, among others. However, this occurs within the context of: (1) geographical concentration known mineral deposits downstream capability; (2) demand that vastly exceeds supply; (3) strong drive to mitigate environmental concerns; (4) an increasing level geopolitical conflicts. Consequently, not straightforward, it intensifies material demand, market competition. This especially true for lithium which pivotal in transformation. Concerns driven by access, sustainability national sufficiency are increasingly resulting super-national activities, resource nationalisation, forming strategic or trade alliances, encouraging near- friend-shoring, promoting circularity, accelerating technology research deployment. study examines global impact transition, from perspective value chain, including products, its implications projected geopolitics. There many potential outcomes future, depending on: pragmatic only empirically realizable through implementation; strength independence stability; rise regional friendly blocs. In particular, future scenario there emergence OPEC-style organisation minerals metals (GEMMs), focusing example, because: has clear essential role transition; geographically concentrated manner facilitates production coordination; overwhelmingly consumed developed nations but supplied developing nations. An built around could be prototype other GEMM markets. we propose possible leverage existing circumstances organisation, here termed Green Energy-Mineral Exporting Countries, "GEMEC", serve collaborative platform enhance positioning, maximise economic benefits coordinated export policies, address environmental, social governance challenges associated with transition.
