Recycling Potential for Waste Electric Vehicle Lithium-ion Batteries in China

The number of waste EV LIBs (electric vehicle lithium-ion batteries) has been increasing in China. Reasonable disposal of waste EV LIBs has becoming a new research hotspot. In this paper, the current status of the generation of waste EV LIBs of China is analyzed, and the treatment strategy and recycling market potential of waste EV LIBs are introduced. And some recommendations were given for the existing problems in the waste EV LIBs recycling market.
