Sustainable Technologies for Reducing Europe’s bAttery raw MaterialS dependance (STREAMS)

在STREAMS项目中，将开发、评估和成功示范至少12项可扩展和灵活的技术和中试规模的解决方案，以可持续地生产电池级前体及其各自的负极和阴极活性材料。这些技术过程将应用于来自一次和二次来源的材料，包括回收的电池质量和光伏废物。这将加强欧洲国内电池材料供应链，减少欧洲对进口关键和战略原材料供应的依赖。这些生产技术还将增强欧洲在全球电池制造业中的韧性、竞争力和战略自主权。STREAMS的技术解决方案将通过进行技术经济、环境、社会影响和综合风险评估以及生命周期可持续性和循环性评估，满足欧盟在对环境负责的设计、扩大规模和预期法规遵从性方面的要求。在STREAM中合成的正负极活性材料将用于采用可持续电极工艺中试生产10Ah型电池单元。原型细胞将根据既定标准进行测试，并接受先进的尸检鉴定。STREAM还将确定未来利用项目成果的最佳条件。

In STREAMS, a comprehensive portfolio of at least 12 scalable and flexible technologies and pilot scale solutions for the sustainable production of battery-grade precursors and their respective anode and cathode active materials will be developed, evaluated and successfully demonstrated. These technological processes will be applied to materials from primary and secondary sources including recycled battery mass and photovoltaic waste. This will strengthen Europe’s domestic battery materials supply chain and reduce Europe’s dependency on imported critical and strategic raw materials supplies. The production technologies will also increase Europe’s resilience, competitiveness and strategic autonomy in the global battery manufacturing industry. STREAMS’ technological solutions will meet EU requirements for environmentally responsible design, and scale up, and anticipate regulatory compliance by conducting techno-economic, environmental, social impact and integrated risks assessments combined with life cycle sustainability and circularity assessments. The cathode and anode active materials synthesized in STREAMS will be used to manufacture 10 Ah battery cells at pilot scale using sustainable electrode processing. Prototype cells will be tested according to established standards and subjected to advanced post-mortem characterization. STREAM will also identify optimal conditions for future exploitation of the project results.
