Those results highlight that the effect of concentrated lithium brine allocation approach does not yield significant variance in the battery's GHG emissions, but that brine-sourced lithium yields NMC622 batteries with 20% lower emissions and NMC811 batteries with 10% lower emissions than ore-sourced lithium.
Lithium-ion power batteries and household batteries are very different in battery structure, capacity, specific energy and discharge power. An ordinary household battery is a primary battery with lithium metal or alloy as cathode material and a non-aqueous electrolyte solution. In contrast, a rechargeable lithium-ion battery is a secondary battery.
This value is 11.6 kWh per kg Li (wiki: lithium-ion battery). Cathode only constitutes 17.5% by mass of a battery pack according to the database source in Ecoinvent 3.0. Thus, when other components would be added to construct a whole battery system, energy density (kWh kg −1) would be lower, ~0.26 kWh kg −1 reported widely.
Recycling spent lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is necessary for environmental protection and the reuse of valuable resources. Previous studies have used the LCA method to evaluate the environmental and energy performance of single spent LIB recycling. However, lacking research can provide an overall view of the spent LIBs recycling.
The study included in our study should be independent research articles, not review articles without original data. The research object is LIBs, household batteries and fuel cells are not considered. Lithium-ion power batteries and household batteries are very different in battery structure, capacity, specific energy and discharge power.
Zhao et al. (2021) reviewed 76 studies evaluating the environmental impact of LIBs . According to the results, they found that the average GWP and CED of lithium-ion battery production are 187.26 kg CO 2-eq /kWh and 42.49 kWh/kg, respectively .
