Increasing Resource Efficiency in the Recycling of Lithium-ion Batteries Through Advanced Mechanical Processing
© Lehrstuhl fĂĽr Abfallverwertungstechnik und Abfallwirtschaft der Montanuniversität Leoben (12/2024)
In the future, large quantities of end-of-life lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) will be sent for recycling. Currently, recycling processes focus on high recovery of the black mass and its valuable components such as nickel and cobalt. However, this results in high losses of other materials contained in the batteries, such as aluminum.

Limits and Challenges of the Calculation and Verification of the Recycling Efficiency of Lithium-ion Batteries posed by the new European Battery Regulation
© Lehrstuhl fĂĽr Abfallverwertungstechnik und Abfallwirtschaft der Montanuniversität Leoben (12/2024)
The new European Battery Regulation, introduced as part of the EU's Green Deal, presents significant challenges and changes in recycling lithium-ion batteries (LIB). This regulation not only raises the general recycling efficiency quotas from 50 % to 65 % by 2027 and 70% by 2030 but also sets specific recycling efficiency requirements for cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), lithium (Li), and nickel (Ni) at the elemental level.

The Waste Framework Directive (WASTE FRAMEWORK DIRECTIVE, 2008) specifies certain measures to ensure that waste is recovered or disposed of in accordance with Article 13, i.e. without endangering human health or harming the environment. Specific measures laid down in the WFD include the introduction and common use of appropriate classification systems (LoW: Art. 7; recovery and disposal codes: Annex I and II), the principle of producer responsibility (Art. 14, Art. 15), the issue of permits for waste treatment facilities (Art. 23), the drafting of waste management plans (Art. 28), the requirement that the actors of waste management shall be subject to appropriate periodic inspections (Art 34) and their obligation to keep records on their activities (Art. 35).

Hazardous waste classification and re-use (end of waste) by New Waste Directive, CLP and REACH Regulations
© Wasteconsult International (6/2010)
Hazardous waste’ means waste which displays one or more of the hazardous properties H. Attribution of the hazardous properties H is derived from risk phrases R coming from Directives 67/548/EEC and 1999/45/EC. New CLP Regulation (repealing above Directives) in place of risk phrases R introduces hazard statements H. That means, that soon we will derive hazardous properties H (1 or 2-digit) from hazard statements H (3-digit) of it’s components.
