The US Department of Energy has launched the first lithium-ion battery recovery center called the Recell Center. Regeneration materials of lithium-ion batteries can be reused in new batteries, thereby reducing processing costs 10% to 30%, which helps to reduce the total cost of electric vehicle batteries, and DOE's goal is to reduce battery costs to each kilowatt 80 US dollar (about 480 yuan). The partner of the Recell Center will focus on four key research categories to achieve a profitable lithium-ion battery recovery, in which the industry is adopted: First, the straight positive recycling, the focus will develop the recycling process, the sprouted straight back to the new battery Products, without expensive reproduction; Second, the recycling of other materials, focusing on creating techniques that can economically efficiently recover other battery materials, thereby supplying additional income sources; third is the recycling design, will develop new battery design, optimization Make future cells easier to recover; four is to develop and utilize modeling and decomposition tools to help direct research and development effective ways and verify the work within the center.

Collaborators in the University and National Laboratory will use the most advanced R <000000> D tools in their institutions to develop new methods for separating and recovering valuable materials from waste electric vehicle batteries. Then, the researchers will be in the most promising technology in the RECELL center plant in Arig, industrial collaborators can explore technology and further develop. The goal of the center is to create favorable can be mapped by reducing foreign supplies of lithium and cobalt.

This will further promote US Presidential Administrative Order 13817, which determines the need to develop key mineral recycling and post-solution technology, as part of the more widely strategic supply of safety and reliable supply of key minerals. .
