REVITALISE - REcycling of low Value components using high purity pre-treatment, dIrecT recycling And green hydrometallurgical approaches for recycling of Lithium Ion and Sodium Ion BatteriEs

revialize将开发预处理技术，为初始粉碎、分离和分层提供具有成本效益的方法，以获得高纯度的废物流。至关重要的是，该项目将把废电池转化为单独的高纯度阴极和阳极黑色物质流，使活性材料能够通过绿色、低温、直接回收和优化的再锂化和再酸化进行修复。剩余的活性正极材料将使用低温/绿色溶剂基湿法冶金回收，以获得电池级纯度的材料和中间高价值化合物。这将带来高采收率、经济高效和环保的简化流程，最大限度地减少热量和能源的使用，从而抵御混合化学物质和交叉污染。目前的废水对水生态环境和人体健康有害。实施水修复以消除威胁和回收锂（目前丢失的）将是振兴精神的核心。

REVITIALISE will develop pre-treatment technologies to give cost-effective approaches for the initial shredding, separation, and delamination to achieve high purity waste streams. Critically, REVITALISE will convert waste batteries into separate high-purity cathodic and anodic black mass streams, enabling the active materials to be reconditioned using green, low temperature, direct recycling with optimised re-lithiation and re-sodiation. The remaining active cathode materials will be recycled using low temperature/green-solvent based Hydrometallurgy to achieve battery level purity materials and intermediate high-value compounds. This will result in a high recovery yield and cost-effective and environmentally friendly simplified flow sheets, minimising heat and energy usage that are resilient against mixed chemistries and cross-contamination. Current waste waters can be harmful to water ecological environment and human health. Implementation of water remediation to remove threats and recover lithium (currently lost) will be at the heart of REVITALISE ethos.
