Recycling Li-ion Batteries for Electric Vehicles
The ReLieVe project aims to develop an integrated European solution for recycling 50,000 tons of lithium-ion batteries annually, producing high-quality metal salts while achieving 100% greenhouse gas emission avoidance.
Projectdetails
Introduction
The ReLieVe (Recycling of Li-ion Batteries for electric Vehicles) project aims to create an innovative end-to-end European-based integrated solution for the closed loop recycling of 50,000 tons of end-of-life lithium-ion batteries and production waste from battery manufacturing processes per year.
Key Innovations
The key project innovations consist of:
- Combining low impact mechanical pretreatment
- Implementing innovative hydrometallurgical refining
These innovations will produce new battery grade salts.
Operational Timeline
From 2027, when it is scheduled to become operational, the ReLieVe plant will produce high-quality recycled metal salts for the production of new batteries in Europe.
Environmental Impact
This project is expected to achieve 100% relative greenhouse gas emission avoidance compared to the reference scenario.
