“…For one, the average battery size is larger, leading to the handling of fewer batteries for an equivalent weight processed. For EVs, collection can occur at centralized locations, such as dealerships (AXIOS, 2022) or repair and maintenance shops (Li, 2022), where the responsibility of proper battery disposal is transferred to the service provider or contractor, instead of to the consumer. For BESS, the majority of LIBs will be handled by larger corporations or licensed contractors (Salim et al, 2019).…”

As the global consumption of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) continues to accelerate, the need to advance LIB recycling technologies and create a more robust recycling infrastructure has become an important consideration to improve LIB sustainability and recover critical materials to reuse in new LIB production. Battery collection, sorting, diagnostics, and second-life usage all contribute to the LIB logistics network, and developments in each of these areas can improve the ultimate recycling and recovery rate. Recent progress in LIB recycling technology seeks to increase the amount of valuable metal compounds, electrode materials, and other LIB components that are recoverable and that can be redeployed in new LIB production or other markets. This review establishes an overview of these developments and discusses the strengths and weaknesses of each major recycling technology. Of particular note are the differences in recycling technology and infrastructure requirements created by various LIB markets, as well as the techno-economic considerations for different recycling methods based on the evolving LIB formats and component compositions.

Consumer Willingness to Recycle The Wasted Batteries of Electric Vehicles in the Era of Circular Economy

Electric vehicles (EVs) are increasingly being used for the benefit of the environment and to foster the development of a low-carbon circular economy. However, compared to internal combustion engine cars, spent EV batteries (WBEVs) constitute a different form of waste, and their recycling mechanism is still in its early stages. WBEV consumer willingness to recycle is an issue in a circular economy in which EV users should be WBEV recycling pioneers. The purpose of this article is to develop an analytical model for consumers’ desire to return WBEVs for recycling, based on the circular economy and consumer welfare, in order to investigate consumer incentives for the construction of a WBEV recycling system. PLS-SEM was used for the analysis, and the results revealed the following. First, both the perception of government policy and environmental attitudes have significant positive causal effects on consumers’ intentions to recycle. Second, the perception of benefits has a significant positive mediating effect on recycling intention, whereas the perception of loss has a significant negative mediating effect. Third, the multigroup analysis found that, with the exception of gender, the variables of age, income, education, area of residence, recycling experiences, and EV ownership all have substantial moderating impacts, although their routes and directions vary considerably. Recycling policies must be appropriate for consumers, and this has policy consequences for the circular economy. Environmental education and incentives should be provided to increase consumer knowledge and willingness to recycle. Big data might help with the design of a WBEV recycling system. It is necessary to create an intelligent recycling platform, cross-regional recycling collaboration, and smart logistics for WBEVs. Further, the battery refill mechanism of energy replenishment might encourage the recycling of WBEVs.

“…And the share of EVs in total vehicle sales rises to 14%, making its highest historical proportion 3 . In such a case, the number of batteries, serving as the core components of EVs, is on the rise 4 . As outlined in China's 14th Five-Year Plan, notable enhancements have been made in the technical indicators of energy batteries, resulting in an extension of battery service life from 8–10 to 20 years 5 .…”

With the development of the electric vehicle industry, the number of power batteries has increased dramatically. Establishing a recycling EOL (end-of-life) battery network for secondary use is an effective way to solve resource shortage and environmental pollution. However, existing networks are challenging due to the high uncertainty of EOL batteries, e.g., quantity and quality, resulting in a low recycling rate of the recovery network. To fill this gap, this paper proposes a stochastic programming approach for recovery network design under uncertain conditions of EOL batteries. Firstly, a multi-objective model for battery recovery network is established, considering carbon emissions and economic benefits. Secondly, a stochastic programming approach is proposed to clarify the model. Subsequently, the genetic algorithm is employed to solve the proposed model. Finally, a recovery network case of Region T is given to verify the credibility and superiority of the proposed method. The results demonstrate that the proposed model reduces carbon emissions by 20 metric tons and increases overall economic benefits by 10 million yuan in Region T compared to the deterministic model. Furthermore, the two portions affecting the optimization results are also discussed to provide a reference for reducing carbon emissions and improving economic efficiency in recycling networks.
