6 FAQs about [Pollution in the production of lithium battery separators]

Can spent lithium-ion batteries be recycled?

Since the cathode active material of lithium-ion batteries are rich in valuable metals, recycling spent lithium-ion batteries are of great significance for abating resource scarcity and environmental pollution. In this review, the hydrometallurgical recycling process of spent lithium-ion batteries are briefly described.

Can lithium-ion batteries reduce fossil fuel-based pollution?

Regarding energy storage, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are one of the prominent sources of comprehensive applications and play an ideal role in diminishing fossil fuel-based pollution. The rapid development of LIBs in electrical and electronic devices requires a lot of metal assets, particularly lithium and cobalt (Salakjani et al. 2019).

Do lithium-ion batteries affect the environment?

Although lithium-ion batteries do not affect the environment when they are in use, they do require electricity to charge. The world is majorly dependent on coal-based sources to generate electricity, which can raise the bar for environmental footprint.

Why do we need a lithium battery separator?

Separator, a vital component in LIBs, impacts the electrochemical properties and safety of the battery without association with electrochemical reactions. The development of innovative separators to overcome these countered bottlenecks of LIBs is necessitated to rationally design more sustainable and reliable energy storage systems.

How can recycling reduce end-of-life lithium-ion batteries?

The rapid increase in lithium-ion battery (LIB) production has escalated the need for efficient recycling processes to manage the expected surge in end-of-life batteries. Recycling methods such as direct recycling could decrease recycling costs by 40% and lower the environmental impact of secondary pollution.

Are spent lithium ion batteries valuable secondary resources?

The spent LIBs are valuable secondary resources for LIB-based battery industries; for example, the lithium content in spent LIBs (5–7 wt%) is much higher than that in natural resources 4.
