It is also expected that demand for lithium-ion batteries will increase up to tenfold by 2030, according to the US Department for Energy, so manufacturers are constantly building battery plants to keep up. Lithium mining can be controversial as it can take several years to develop and has a considerable impact on the environment.
In 1991, the first rechargeable lithium-ion battery was manufactured by Asahi Kasei Corporation and commercialized by Sony, after which LIB played a significant role in power tools and equipment (Castelvecchi and Stoye, n.d.).
A brand new substance, which could reduce lithium use in batteries, has been discovered using artificial intelligence (AI) and supercomputing. The findings were made by Microsoft and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), which is part of the US Department of Energy.
Further research should focus on optimizing these technologies and exploring their scalability in industrial applications. A multidisciplinary approach combining materials science, chemistry, environmental engineering, and data science is crucial for overcoming challenges related to lithium-ion battery recycling.
Spent lithium-ion batteries (S-LIBs) contain valuable metals and environmentally hazardous chemicals, necessitating proper resource recovery and harmless treatment of these S-LIBs. Therefore, research on S-LIBs recycling is beneficial for sustainable EVs development.
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are widely used in various aspects of human life and production due to their safety, convenience, and low cost, especially in the field of electric vehicles (EVs). Currently, the number of LIBs worldwide is growing exponentially, which also leads to an increase in discarded LIBs.
