Abstract Scope |
Critical metals in battery manufacturing face several supply-chain issues, resulting in limited primary resources and skyrocketing prices. As more lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) reach their end-of-life, these spent batteries are good sources for critical materials, such as graphite, lithium, manganese, nickel, and cobalt. In the present study, nickel and cobalt were successfully recovered from spent LIBs. From these recovered salts, nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) cathode materials can be generated through a series of chemical synthesis processes. These regenerated materials are used to make battery cathodes in coin cell batteries, where their battery performances are compared to the commercial precursors. |
