At present, my country's automobile power lithium-ion battery recovery has not attracted attention, Director Wu Feng, director of the National High-tech Green Material Development Center, said in the 2011 my country Battery Alliance Annual Meeting, in the market. In this case, it causes the industry's side. According to reporter investigations, companies involved in powerful lithium-ion batteries are indeed very small, but not, Foshan Bangpu Circular Technology Co.

, Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Bangp) is a taking crab. Directional circulation mode We currently have a unique‘Directional cycle’Mode, can be recovered by 100%, and the product will be reselected to the automotive battery production company as a battery production raw material to achieve resource cycle utilization.

Bonde Strategic Director's Navy said in an interview with a reporter. According to public data, the establishment of Bonds in December 2005, the registered capital is only 6.999 million yuan, with the three major industries of battery circulation, carrier cycle and circular service, engaged in various waste digital batteries, scrap nickel, waste Cobalt resource recycling and treatment.

At present, Bonde's annual recovery has more than 6,000 tons of waste batteries. At the same time, this company also assumes the key technology of clean cycle using the 11th Five-Year Plan of Technology and its industrialization science and technology project. Insidians who are familiar with Bangpu said that the development speed of Bangu can be described in geometric rise.

At present, its battery recycling business has accounted for more than 9.8% of nickel-cobalt metal in the global waste battery circulation, ranking first in Asia. It is understood that from May 2008, since the May 2008, it has established a strategic alliance relationship with BYD, Bike and other domestic well-known battery suppliers.

In this way, enter the field of automotive battery recycling. In order to preempt the car battery recycling market, in January 2010, Bangpu Invested 200 million yuan in Changsha, Hunan, established the country's largest waste battery circulation base, and the total area of ​​industrial park reached 160,000 square meters. Yu Navy revealed the reporter that because there is a small number of scrap batteries that appear at the current electric vehicle consumption terminal, the current recycling car battery is important to be derived from the scrapped battery that appeared in the battery production process of battery manufacturers.

During the interview, Yu Navy explains the company's original directional cycle mode for the reporter: First recovery after recovery, simply dismantling, crushing; secondly after alkaline solubil, acid immersion, bughing and other steps, Extract valuable weight metal and harmless treatment; finally reduce the resulting product to the original industrial-grade raw material required for battery production, and resold to battery manufacturer. Even if such a model is environmentally friendly, but after so many complicated processes, the cost is not very high? The reporter puts forward. No, because we get a scrap battery from the price of the battery manufacturer, the price is relatively low.

In addition, we are engaged in waste recycling, which will also obtain some subsidies of the government, reflecting the price of terminal raw materials, will also benefit customers. Yu Haijun said, in fact, the company is very happy to be a model, because the province has brought battery manufacturers to purchase rare earth ore raw materials from South Africa and Australia, and also prevent international dramatic prices. Moreover, the two sides are in a customer, mutual market, and the cooperative relationship is also relatively stable.

Some industry insiders analyzed that although the operation mode of Bangpu is very unique, only hundreds of electric vehicle markets are difficult to support their long-term development. Or incorporating the general manager of Beijing Jinghua Gaoke Electromechanical Technology Co., Ltd.

, said that the domestic electric vehicle battery application has not yet formed market size, it is difficult to talk about recycling. Sandy Yongkang, the Hezhuang Environmental Technology Research Institute, expressed its agreement. In his view, the current new energy car is still in the pilot stage.

The development of the battery will be subject to the development of electric vehicles, and the scrap battery has a large-scale recycling. At present, my country's powered lithium-ion battery has not yet fully entered the recycling stage, so the large-scale recovery has not yet formed. Chen Quanshi, director of the Tsinghua University Automobile Research Institute, the same point of view.

At the same time, Wu Feng, the leader of the Chief Scientist of the National 973 Green Second Battery Project, also showing concerns: we are currently experimental demonstration of electric car battery recovery, talking about marketization and time, and some core recycling Technology has not broken. When the reporter mentioned relative developed countries, when my country's battery recovery technology was in the level, Wu Feng firmly said that now, everyone has just started research. Recently, there is often a US peer to communicate with us to communicate with us in recycling technology and market operations.

This itself explains that we are all running. Wu Feng said that battery recycling involves many aspects, not simple disassembly. An expert who did not want to be named said that there are three different current status of positive electrode materials used in domestic electric vehicle batteries: lithium iron phosphate, lithium manganate, manganese cobalt nickel ternary material.

Each positive material battery has a company in use, it is difficult to distinguish between Bozhong, and its recovery method is different. If the recycling company has built production lines for three positive material batteries, plus post-maintenance, the investment amount is near billion. Therefore, choose which battery recycling automatic production line for the horse is particularly critical.

In this regard, the Yu Navy experienced a quite deep: At present, the 80 million yuan of imported 80 million yuan in Foshan headquarters is based on battery recovery technology and moderate test, which has achieved a lot of results and data, but What kind of automation production lines are used in the future, and there is also a market selection of new energy automotive batteries. In addition to it is difficult to ponder, it will use a positive material battery as mainstream, and the recycling technology is also a difficult point. Chen Quanshi revealed reporters.

1 20 grams of mobile phone battery can pollute three standard swimming pool volumes, if abandoned on the land, can make 1 square kilometers of land for about 50 years. Imagine, if it is a 200 kg power lithium-ion battery discarded in a natural environment? How is the result? Wu Fengtan, can recycle is very good, if the recycling technology is not hard, the large number of heavy metals and chemicals in the same is large. Nature, will cause greater pollution to the environment.

Wu Feng believes that the field of automotive battery needs to obtain technical breakthroughs must have to support and guide the company's technology, and the company's technology exchanges and resource sharing can make breakthroughs, otherwise it will be able to fall to the end of the business. However, the reporter survey learned that the relevant access regulations of the battery recycling company and the automotive battery recovery technology standard are still in a vacuum period. Chen Quanshi said to reporters that in the world, the global battery must be recycled, and the subsidies of the Western countries have directly returned to the battery production company.

This related to battery recycling is pragmatic and convenient. At present, my country's government is still blank aspects of legal aspects in the field of automotive battery recovery. The company is basically single-handed, lacks orderly cooperation.

Cao Guoqing, deputy secretary-general of my country's Battery Industry Association, said that there are more domestic battery recovery to refine precious metals to high value-added metallurgical materials, and finally flow into the metallurgical field. As for the product after recovery, the industry has raw materials, the industry is really rare. In the face of the external session, Yu Haijun expressed its unique confidence in the company: In fact, we have long thought of, we are also layout for future markets.

The gambling future this year, Bangpu in the second phase of Hunan's second phase project 3,000 tons of three-yuan precursor production line has started. At the same time, invest 80 million yuan has established a car waste battery research center in Foshan. It is currently preparing to build a circular base in Foshan.

In this way, Bangu's operational scope will cover important cities and regions such as Guangdong, Jiangxi, Hunan, Fujian, and Shanghai. Referring to the company's development plan, Yu Navy is full of pride. At present, our company's monthly treatment uses waste nickel, 500 tons of waste cobalt, and the scale is the first in Asia.

He told reporters that it will also invest 500 million to 600 million funds in the next five years, new energy electric vehicles and power lithium-ion battery circulation industries. When the reporter asked if there is so much funds, if it is worried about risk, Yu Haijun said that it is not worried that my country's current automotive lithium-ion battery production company is about 2% about 2% a year, which is a garbage for the company, but For us, it is baby, and there will be a market of about 2 billion yuan here. We have done a survey, two years later, if my country's new energy auto market received an average number of thousands of levels of development, will have a hundred billion-level scrapped car battery market.

He said. In terms of establishing a stable customer relationship, Yu Navy is equally confident. He told reporters that the Guangdong lithium-ion battery market occupies 57% market share in the country, and 10-bit battery suppliers in BYD, Bik, and Bonde maintain strategic cooperation relations.

When the reporter asked if the reporter realized a profit, Yu Navy, Chen Chen, is currently in the burn-up stage, and is also the development and trial of the automotive battery recycling business with the profits of recycling traditional digital, lead-acid batteries. Yu Navy set up a medium short time goal to herself: as long as you insist on for two years, you can achieve scale production. However, when the reporter puts forward for two years, Yu Navy is slightly cautious: At present, there are three positive materials coexistence in my country.

Cannot expand scale production. For future market prospects, Yidongbo dedicated to battery recycling industry has its own ideas: current recycling company qualifications and technical strength is uneven, and large pollution lead-acid battery recovery companies have not yet introduced, it is difficult to introduce lithium ions in a short time. Battery recycling company qualification requirements.

A recovery production line has a small investment of millions, more than 10 million yuan, in case it does not comply with the future company to set up the company, it is possible to pay for blood book, I still wait for two or three years later.
