ABSTRACT: The growing demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIB) for electric mobility and energy storage applications has created enormous pressure on the metals market, not only for lithium (Li) but also for other critical metals such as nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co) and manganese (Mn). Beyond the need for primary extraction of mineral resources, which is essential for an initial phase of significant growth in demand, recycling will quickly play a fundamental role in the availability of these raw materials. Recycling also allows a valuable contribution to the management of end-of-life batteries (Dobó et al., 2023). Recycling of LIB is predominantly conducted through hydrometallurgical methods, involving both physical/mechanical processes (such as electrode fraction concentration) and chemical processes (including leaching, separation and recovery).
The physical operations include safe discharge and dismantling, followed by shredding and separation of fractions (Sommerville et al., 2020). In hydrometallurgical processing, metals are leached and recovered from aqueous solutions using different methods (Bae and Kim, 2021). This work presents findings from research on the physical and chemical treatment of end-of-life LIB (Ni-Co-Mn or NCM type), with an emphasis on the obtained recoveries and yields.
