In recent years, with the rapid popularity of new energy vehicles, energy storage systems, and smart devices, the demand for lithium batteries has experienced explosive growth. 그 동안에, a large number of retired batteries are entering the recycling process. The decade from 2020 에게 2030 will be a key period for lithium battery recycling technology from the beginning to maturity.

What role will recycled materials play in the global supply chain by 2030?

에 의해 2030, the cumulative volume of retired lithium batteries worldwide will exceed 12 백만 톤, several times the amount in 2020.

Currently, global lithium resources primarily rely on mining ore and salt lakes, but these sources are concentrated and costly. 에 의해 2030, recycled lithium will account for 15%–20% of global supply. YUSHUNXIN’s high-purity sorting and fine grinding equipment can increase the lithium recovery rate in black powder by approximately 10%.

The widespread adoption of high-nickel ternary materials has driven rapid growth in nickel demand. 에 의해 2030, recycled nickel will meet 25%–30% of demand. We introduce automatic grading systems into lithium battery recycling solutions, which effectively reduce metal contamination and enhance the purity of nickel and cobalt separation.

Most cobalt deposits occur in a limited number of regions, posing high supply risks. 에 의해 2030, recycled cobalt is projected to account for 35%–40% of the battery industry’s demand. YUSHUNXIN hydrometallurgical equipment achieves cobalt recovery rates exceeding 95% through optimal leaching and extraction processes.

How Will Lithium Battery Recycling Technology Evolve from 2020 에게 2030?

Lithium battery recycling technology primarily follows three approaches: mechanical recycling, pyrolytic treatment, and hydrometallurgy.

Mechanical Recycling for lithium battery

 

Prior to 2020, mechanical recycling primarily relied on manual dismantling and basic crushing. Traditional manual disassembly is not only inefficient but also carries risks of short circuits and leakage.

Since entering 2020, 유슌신 has launched electronic waste shredder. YUSHUNXIN introduced an intelligent disassembly system that completes automatic shell removal, electrolyte extraction, and graded crushing processes. Electronic waste shredder incorporates a low-temperature crushing system and inert gas protection system to prevent thermal runaway and the volatilization of organic gases.

Pyrolysis Treatment for Batteries

 

Manufacturers began widely adopting pyrolysis technology around 2020 to remove electrolyte and organic binders, but it requires high energy and complex emissions treatment.

하지만, our low-temperature pyrolysis furnace employs an inert gas circulation system that enables efficient decomposition of organic matter below 500°C, with a 30% reduction in energy consumption from traditional equipment. 더 중요한 것은, this lithium battery recycling technology is equipped with exhaust gas purification and recovery modules, which provides assurance for enterprises to reduce carbon emissions and environmental risks.

Hydrometallurgy for waste lithium battery recycling

 

Hydrometallurgy represents the most efficient technological approach for metal recovery, and the key lies in precisely controlling the leaching, 분리, and purification processes.

YUSHUNXIN hydrometallurgical equipment employs a multi-stage reactor design. 게다가, it combines acid addition with temperature control systems to automatically adjust leaching parameters according to different battery materials. Through selective extraction and electrowinning technologies, the recovery rates for lithium, 니켈, and cobalt can reach over 95%, 98%, 그리고 96%, respectively.

Can different types of batteries have the same recycling process?

There are numerous types of lithium batteries, such as ternary (NCM/NCA), 리튬철인산염 (LFP), lithium manganese oxide, and lithium titanate. Different battery systems have distinct requirements for recycling processes.

Ternary batteries contain a higher proportion of nickel, 코발트, 및 망간, which have the highest recycling value. Lithium recycling plant commonly apply a mechanical–pyrolysis–hydrometallurgical process to efficiently extract nickel, 코발트, 망간, and lithium salts. It can also automatically adjust the wet leaching formula based on the proportions of ternary materials, realizing efficient separation and purification.

Due to the absence of precious metals like cobalt and nickel, their metal value is relatively low. 하지만, given their vast quantities, recycling is significant for material reuse. 그만큼 EV 배터리 재활용 프로젝트 솔루션 enable efficient separation, which allows the direct reprocessing of cathode powder and conductive agents into raw materials for iron phosphate. The equipment features a simple structure and low energy consumption, which is suitable for the large-scale processing of retired LFP batteries.

These batteries feature stable structures but lower metal value, and traditional hydrometallurgical recycling processes have long investment payback periods. For this category of batteries, we offer a pyrolysis-sorting recycling solution. By optimizing the pyrolysis atmosphere and powder classification, we can efficiently extract manganese salts or titanium-based materials for use in the chemical or ceramics industries.

different types of batteries

에서 2025 time point, the lithium battery recycling technology is transitioning from its exploratory phase to a critical stage of intelligent development. The accumulated experience over the past five years has gradually clarified the technological approach. 따라서, the synergistic application of mechanical recycling, pyrolysis treatment, and hydrometallurgy has become a trend in development.
