Blueprint and techno-economic analysis of the NMC battery recycling processes. D6.4
report
The Green Transport Delta Electrification project is boosting the knowledge and export position of the
Dutch industry in the domain of electrification of the mobility system. The “Battery recycling” part focusses
on the development of knowledge and practical experience with recovery of valuable materials from
end-of-life lithium ion batteries by investigating:
- current and future battery compositions,
- suitability, performance, and in- and output materials for recycling of various materials via
metallurgical separation methods,
- separation techniques of black mass components.
The main objective of the work presented here is to further build on the earlier published report Literature
assessment of Li-ion battery recycling steps. This is done by the development of a perspective on a
scalable and flexible battery recycling process by setting up a blueprint for battery recycling and
evaluate it through the preliminary techno-economic assessment. The development of the methodology
used in this work was a major goal of this project, with the benefit that it is also suitable to apply for
alternative metal recycling processes or new iterations of techno-economic assessment with better
specified information.
