Waste lithium battery packs are retired, and are the recycling market ready to pick up?

In 2018, the waste of the old lithium-ion battery bag is retired. Is the recycling market ready to pick up? 2018 is the peak period of the dynamic lithium-ion battery, and the lithium iron phosphate is widely put into new energy cars. In the use, it is expected that the scale of the waste power lithium battery recovery can reach 5 billion yuan.

So, is the recycling market system ready to take it? Domestic related institutions predict that the recycling market created by the waste-powered lithium battery can reach 5 billion yuan in 2018. 2020 - 2023 will reach 6.5 billion yuan to 150 billion yuan.

Data show that the number of lithium battery recovery companies in 2018 has increased rapidly. It has more than 400 in March 2018. The number of new power lithium battery companies in the first quarter of 2018 is the same as 2016.

When the lithium phosphate ion battery pack is retired, are you really ready? First, the ladder uses irregularity leads to a good non-dynamic lithium ion battery pack recycling, according to the scrap level, subtraction and regeneration. The ladder uses light scrap, which can be used in energy storage equipment and low-speed electric vehicles. After the ladder is used, the battery will reach the extent of the secondary retraction will enter the renewable utilization link.

Regeneration utilization belongs to severe scrap, with a chemical method to extract a noble metal electrode material such as lithium, cobalt, and achieve the purpose of re-manufacturing. At present, many independent brand car companies layout. BYD, Beiqi new energy, learning beans and other car companies have launched a layout in the field of tradder.

It is worth noting that there is a difference in the use of independent brands, and the joint venture brand is more inclined to "skip" the tradder, directly enter the renewable utilization link. Because the ladder utilization of the lithium-ion battery pack is still the processing of battery products, according to the requirements and standards of the battery, the production and manufacturing sections of raw materials, process products, product certification, and after-sales warranty should be achieved. check.

However, the so-called step-by-step market does not have the detection standards, life prediction technology, and product certification, and no recovery warranty. Second, the difficulty of the difficulty of the dynamic lithium-ion battery is difficult to use is that the battery consistency problem cannot be solved by re-matching the variety, performance, specifications, and polarization methods of each vendor battery. Because small scale, the recycling channel is not perfect, resulting in unstable raw materials recovery, some company investment finds that cooperation companies have irregularities, qualified people are engaged, no qualifications are also engaged.

Battery performance is not fully satisfied with the retardation of the demand, which is to go to the market in the form of a battery pack, but to truly use it again, you must detect the cellular battery in the battery pack to confirm each The status of the monomer battery is again packaged to meet the different needs of different ladder, which is not only cumbersome, but also involves many aspects such as testing techniques. Third, the ladder uses the current situation of the irregular status, and the ladder is basically light assets, and the regeneration and utilization is all heavy assets. At present, many domestic retired lithium-ion battery packs have been profitable in low-speed electric vehicles, charging treasures, etc.

through irregular channels. Many new companies do ladder use or regenerative utilization, not considering clear, specific technical routes and business models have not been blind. With the rapid decline in battery cost, the vehicle factory is more willing to buy new batteries, and the ladder can not exist.

IV. The most important factor in the recycling and development of the high-cost phosphate ion battery needs to be improved in the cost of high-cost, and the market stock is not big enough. From the current situation, the recycling process battery cost is important including professional assessment, professional packaging, professional warehousing and transportation, environmental management, technical equipment development, labor tax, depreciation.

In addition, storage and circulation links are not smooth enough, and the recycling system needs to be improved. 5. A large number of car companies have a high price, and the recycling channel is difficult to enter the right-track new energy vehicle battery recovery just start.

Many reported lithium-ion battery packs have not entered the formal channel, the market lacks specification. Since the industry is in the wild, a large number of car companies have a high price, causing most of the waste-moving lithium batteries that fail to flow into legal treatment channels, and the actual treatment is worrying. Many car manufacturers signed an agreement and found that the battery is not in their hands after the agreement is signed.

The distance between the scrapped car and the car factory is far away, and how to go back to the car factory after demolish, this is the problem that needs to be discussed. At present, there is a wide variety of power lithium batteries, the battery is complex and there is no fixed standard, resulting in complex recycling process, high recovery cost, the company lacks recycling enthusiasm, and it is difficult to form industrial management, and the restructuring technical means is immature, and the government lacks supervision and Encourage policy, dynamic lithium battery ladder is difficult to form a scale. As the "heart" of new energy vehicles, the dynamic lithium-ion battery pack industry chain is facing profound changes, the ladder is needed to be strengthened and improved, making a complete set of recycling system markets very necessary.

The government should promptly supervise and encourage policies to solve this recycling problem.
