Recycling and Regeneration of Spent Lithium-Ion Batteries : Technologies, Applications, and Sustainable Futures

Comprehensive recycling technologies for spent ions batteries With the application of electric vehicles and portable electronics, the closed-loop utilization of end-of-life lithium-ion batteries is urgent for the further development of Li-ions batteries. Recycling and Regeneration of Spent Lithium-Ion Batteries: Technologies, Applications, and Sustainable Futures provide systematic recycling-chain technologies, from battery dismantling to direct regeneration, covering pretreatment, cascade utilization, metallurgical extraction, direct regeneration, and life cycle assessment. Herein, the production volume and distribution of spent lithium-ion batteries was firstly described. Also, for pretreatment, they were further detailed discussed. Then, about the treatment of spent batteries, the contents, including cascade utilization, hydrometallurgical/pyrometallurgical methods and direct regeneration were summar­ized. Moreover, pollution prevention strategies, environmental and economic impact evaluations, and global policy frameworks are thoroughly reviewed. Moreover, the book also covers: Emerging applications in solid-state and lithium iron phosphate battery systemsEnvironmental and economic lifecycle assessment methodologiesPolicy and regulatory perspectives shaping global approaches Future outlooks on large-scale recycling technologies Written for electrochemists, materials scientists, environmental chemists, chemical engineers, process engineers, and power technology specialists, this reference delivers the technical depth required to evaluate, design, and optimize spent LIB recycling and regeneration processes within a circular economy framework.
