Novel methods for recycling spent lithium ion batteries to develop of electroactive materials for energy storage applications

随着移动技术中大量使用锂离子电池（lib），必须负责任地处理使用过的锂离子电池，并考虑到环境影响和可持续性。因此，LIBS的回收利用将是一项日益重要的全球技术和经济挑战。目前，回收技术仍然需要创新的预处理和金属回收方法解决方案，以解决成本、高温工艺、吞吐量和不同电池化学成分的通用性等问题。新加坡致力于回收包括电池在内的电子废物，因为《生产者延伸责任法》将于2021年生效，该立法将规范行业收集和责任处置/回收电子废物。在英国，通过法拉第研究所，英国政府和科学界也致力于将英国置于锂电池开发和制造的前沿，包括锂电池的回收利用。

With the huge numbers of Lithium Ion Batteries (LIBs) used in mobile technologies, spent LIBs must be handled responsibly with key considerations in environmental impact and sustainability. Hence, recycling of LIBS will be an increasingly important global technical and economical challenge. Currently, recycling technologies still need innovative solutions for pre-processing and metal recovery methods that can address issues such as cost, high temperature processes, throughput and generalizability across different battery chemistries. Singapore is committed to recycling of electronic waste including batteries as the Extended Producer Responsibility Law will come into effect in 2021 where the legislation will govern the industry to collect and responsibility dispose/recycle electronic waste. In the UK, through the Faraday Institute, the UK government and science community have also committed to place the UK at the forefront of lithium battery development and manufacture, including the recycling of LIBs.
