Study on Recycling of Lithium-Ion Batteries: A future aspects of Sustainable Development

Abstract

Technology must be created to enable a resource-efficient and financially viable recycling system for lithium-ion batteries in order to secure the availability of the component materials in the future. Planning for future recovery is more difficult because lithium-ion batteries are complicated goods whose designs and materials are still in development. There are several recycling methods under consideration or in use, and each has benefits and drawbacks. This study contrasts different procedures on a technical and financial level, highlighting variations in advantages as a result of cathode composition. There are proposed research fields because none of the current procedures are perfect and could lead to the improvement of recycling techniques. Separation technologies are among the most promising research fields.
