Battery recycling: the EU and Switzerland power ahead
In battery land, and especially in battery recycling land, legislation is currently a point of focus given that the new EU Battery Directive - which includes collection and reprocessing targets for portable batteries - is scheduled to come into force on September 25 next year. At the 12th annual International Congress of Battery Recycling (ICBR), delegates shared their experiences and differing ...

LITHIUM-ION BATTERY RECYCLING
The energy sector has turned to alternative vehicles due to reasons such as the increase in the number of vehicles in the world, rapidly decreasing oil resources, wars, and increasing pollution rates all over the world. Electric vehicles that developed for this purpose, have come to the fore in the production sector because their pollutant emissions are lower than conventional vehicles and they ...

Li-Ion Batteries
Nowadays, with the development of technology, we are come across lithium ion batteries in each of the electronic devices frequently. Lithium ion batteries have a complex and toxic structure. Therefore, recycling has been an important issue since last decade, both in terms of the environment and decreasing reserves. The process from storage to recycling of lithium-ion batteries, 50% of which can ...

Hospitals get charge out of recycling batteries
Environmentally conscious hospitals that find themselves with a glut of dying and dead batteries have an easy and readily available cure: Recycling. Whether ubiquitous alkalines, lead-acid, lithium or other types of batteries, recycling companies and independent brokers have programs in place nationwide/worldwide to make disposing of conked out power cells a simple matter. There’s also always the ...

Next-Gen Battery Storage
A utility in Oregon recently announced the largest wind-solar-storage project in the U.S that will generate nearly 380 MW of energy. This is a good example of how utilities are storing energy from intermittent sources (like wind or solar) in grid-scale batteries. Grid-scale batteries are the perfect match to wind and solar installations, storing energy during peak production and releasing power ...

Monitoring Off-Gasses to Guard Against Thermal Runaway Risk with Li-Ion Batteries
Lithium-Ion Batteries Rechargeable lithium-ion (“li-ion”) batteries (comprised of cells in which lithium ions move from a negative electrode through an electrolyte to a positive electrode during discharge—and the other way around when charging) were first described conceptually in the 1970s. Following initial prototype development in the 1980s, li-ion batteries became ...
