Project Grant

Overview

Grant Description
Bipartisan Infrastructure Law - An Environmentally Sustainable Solution to Completely Recycle and Upcycle Lithium-Ion Battery Components.

The overall objective of this project is to develop a novel, complete, and environmentally sustainable solution for recycling end-of-life (EOL) lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The specific goals include automated battery pack disassembly, cathode-to-cathode upcycling, anode-to-anode recycling/upcycling, lithium compounds (e.g., LiF and Li3PO4) recovery, and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) binder recovery.

Using this new recycling technology, the total recycling efficiency will be over 92%.
Funding Goals
