Three Technologies Dominate Lithium-Ion Battery Recycling Initiatives
CAMBRIDGE, England—As demand for lithium-ion batteries continues to increase, the need to manage their sustainability through their entire life cycle, including end-of-life, is becoming increasingly important. The batteries can be recycled to re-obtain valuable metals such as cobalt, lithium and nickel.
Depending on the recycling technique employed, materials obtained from these processes may need further refining or processing to enable their re-introduction into new battery manufacturing.
