“…According to the technological roadmap for energy-saving and new energy vehicles in China, the industry-wide unit cost of a battery pack will be reduced to 104 €/kWh in 2025 and 73 €/kWh in 2030 [9]. In this paper, we assume that the price of the LIP battery is the same as the technological roadmap.…”

“…For this reason, the Chinese government is stepping up the development of relevant policies on the reusing of power batteries. As shown in Figure 2, the frequency and content of recent relevant policies are getting higher and higher [8,9]. All kinds of signs indicate that China will issue regulations and policies on the mandatory recycling of retired power batteries soon.…”

With the rapid development of new energy vehicles (NEVs) industry in China, the reusing of retired power batteries is becoming increasingly urgent. In this paper, the critical issues for power batteries reusing in China are systematically studied. First, the strategic value of power batteries reusing, and the main modes of battery reusing are analyzed. Second, the economic benefit models of power batteries echelon utilization and recycling are constructed. Finally, the economic benefits of lithium iron phosphate (LIP) battery and ternary lithium (TL) battery under different reusing modes are analyzed based on the economic benefit models. The results show that when the industrial chain is fully coordinated, LIP battery echelon utilization is profitable based on a reasonable scenario scheme. However, the multi-level echelon utilization is only practical under an ideal scenario, and more attention should be paid to the first level echelon utilization. Besides, the performance matching of different types of batteries has a great impact on the echelon utilization income. Thus, considering the huge potentials of China’s energy storage market, the design of automobile power batteries in the future should give due consideration to the performance requirements of energy storage batteries. Moreover, the TL battery could only be recycled directly, while the LIP has the feasibility of echelon utilization at present. At the same time, it will strengthen the cost advantage of the LIP battery, which deserves special attention.

“…According to 2017 statistics, the global market share for LABs in the rechargeable battery industry was still over 70%, reaching USD 42.9 billion [4]. Moreover, LAB consumption is expected to steadily grow as the automobile, electric bicycle, and energy storage industries continue to expand [5]. The average service life of a LAB is approximately two years.…”

Multi-Criteria Evaluation of Best Available Treatment Technology for Waste Lead-Acid Battery: The Case of China

Improper waste lead-acid battery (LAB) disposal not only damages the environment, but also leads to potential safety hazards. Given that waste best available treatment technology (BATT) plays a major role in environmental protection, pertinent research has largely focused on evaluating typical recycling technologies and recommending the BATT for waste LABs. First the evaluation indicators were selected based on the analysis of main factors affecting the pollution control of waste LAB treatment. The relative weights of each indicator were determined via the Delphi-attribute hierarchy model (AHM) in the second step. To determine the BATT, the attributive mathematics theory was adopted to calculate the attribute measure of single and multiple indices. Then, five recycling technologies commonly used in the secondary lead industry were estimated using the proposed evaluation system, and the feasibility of the recommended BATT was preliminarily verified. The results indicated that mixed smelting technology (MST), pre-desulfurization and multi-chamber smelting technology (PD-MCST), and direct smelting technology (DST) were found to perform well and were therefore deemed optimal for waste LAB disposal at this stage. The validation study showed that the DST can meet the requirements of pollution control, which is consistent with the evaluation results.

“…It can be observed that there is a shift towards a more holistic approach in the analysis of waste management [17][18][19], and reducing environmental impact is the priority for future generations. Waste minimisation techniques should be implemented as well, considering the principles of sustainable development [20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. Importantly, implementing sustainable development does not cause long-term business disadvantages for the companies [27].…”

This article aims to propose a methodological framework to determine the degree of the dynamic impact of the effect of activities in the field of sustainable waste logistics on the development of trade in recyclable raw materials in the chosen countries of the European Union, especially in Poland and Hungary. In order to determine the dynamic interdependence between the indicated phenomena, econometric tools associated with the vector autoregression model were used, namely: Granger causality tests, impulse response function and variance decomposition of forecast errors. The tools used will not only identify the direction of the causal interdependence between the effects of sustainable logistics activities and the development of trade in recyclable raw materials, but also allow to determine the strength of the interaction between these variables. The conducted research shows that changes in the environmental effects of waste logistics activities are the Granger cause of changes occurring in the trade of renewable raw materials, especially in Hungary. Considering adequately delayed values of the synthetic development measure of the environmental effects of waste logistics increases the accuracy of predictions for changes in the trade of recyclable raw materials.
