Battery recycling is a downstream process that deals with end-of-life batteries of different types and health conditions. Many established battery-recycling plants require a standardized presorting process to distinguish spent LIBs, as direct recycling reduces the efficiency of recovering valuable metals.
Hence, the waste battery recycling industry holds significant potential for application and development. The recycling of waste batteries faces several challenges, including the establishment of effective recycling channels, high recycling costs, and technical complexities.
Various recycling technologies are depicted, i.e., physical recycling, direct recycling, pyrometallurgical, and hydrometallurgy recycling methods, which promote the green transformation. Hence, the waste battery recycling industry holds significant potential for application and development.
As finite rational individuals 24, the strategy choice of each participant in the new energy battery recycling process is not always theoretically optimal, and the new energy battery recycling strategy is also influenced by the carbon sentiment of manufacturers, retailers, and other participants.
The battery recycling industry has gradually emerged under the influence of government implementation and ecological protection trends. However, the annual recycling volume is still insufficient compared to the output volume of used batteries. Therefore, more recycling plants and advanced technologies are imperative to improve recycling efficiency.
Countries have begun to pay more attention to the recycling of waste battery, nevertheless, faced with the following problems and challenges. The recycling of diverse battery types presents complex and multifaceted challenges that span various scientific disciplines, including physics, chemistry, and biology.
