  2. Environmental impacts of lithium-ion batteries - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_impacts_of...

    There are currently three major methods used for the recycling of lithium-ion batteries, those being pyrometallurgical recovery, hydrometallurgical metal reclamation, and mechanical recycling. [22] A study conducted in 2016 with several recycling plants in Australia found that mechanical recycling recovered the most materials, recovering 7 of ...

  3. Battery recycling - Wikipedia

    Extraction of lithium from old batteries is five times more expensive than mined lithium. [25] However, lithium extraction from Li-ion batteries has been demonstrated in small setups by various entities [16] [26] [17] as well as in production scale by battery material recycling companies like Electra Battery Materials [27] and Redwood Materials ...

  4. Recovery effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recovery_effect

    The KiBaM battery model [3] describes the recovery effect for lead-acid batteries and is also a good approximation to the observed effects in Li-ion batteries. [1] [4] In some batteries, the gains from the recovery life can extend battery life by up to 45% by alternating discharging and inactive periods rather than constantly discharging. [5]

    Downstream activities include manufacturing of the batteries and end goods for the consumer. [13] The production of lithium batteries in China has nearly three times higher emissions than the US because electricity generation in China relies more on coal. [7] End of life activities include recycling or recovery of materials when possible. [13]

  6. Lithium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium

    A typical lithium-ion battery can generate approximately 3 volts per cell, compared with 2.1 volts for lead-acid and 1.5 volts for zinc-carbon. Lithium-ion batteries, which are rechargeable and have a high energy density, differ from lithium metal batteries, which are disposable batteries with lithium or its compounds as the anode.

    QuantumScape's solid-state batteries are also expected to be useful for up to 300,000 miles' worth of driving, versus the expected 100,000 miles most lithium batteries currently found in EVs are ...

  9. Lithium-ion battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium-ion_battery

    A lithium-ion or Li-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery that uses the reversible intercalation of Li + ions into electronically conducting solids to store energy. In comparison with other commercial rechargeable batteries, Li-ion batteries are characterized by higher specific energy, higher energy density, higher energy efficiency, a longer cycle life, and a longer calendar life.
