Lithium-ion battery recycling
Lithium-ion battery recycling involves safely extracting valuable materials like lithium, cobalt, and nickel from used batteries to reuse them. The process starts by collecting and safely discharging batteries, then breaking them down to separate components. The materials are purified and processed into raw materials that can be used to produce new batteries, reducing the need for new mining and minimizing environmental impact. Recycling helps conserve resources, lowers waste, and supports sustainable electronic device and electric vehicle production.
