As the world shifts toward electric vehicles (EVs), the demand for lithium-ion batteries continues to rise at an unprecedented rate. Lithium-ion batteries are at the heart of nearly every EV, powering the transition to a cleaner and more sustainable future. However, this rapid growth presents significant challenges in terms of resource availability, environmental sustainability, and efficient recycling practices. At the core of this challenge lies the need for critical minerals—cobalt, nickel, lithium, and other key elements—used to manufacture EV lithium-ion batteries. While mining operations have ramped up to meet the demand, they cannot keep up with the skyrocketing needs of battery production. Establishing new mines is a complex and costly process, often accompanied by environmental concerns such as depletion of local water resources and pollution. Consequently, battery recycling has emerged as a vital solution to meet the growing demand for these precious resources. The Rising...

The global shift towards electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy storage has brought about a rapid increase in demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs).
