Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries have gained widespread recognition for their exceptional thermal stability, remarkable cycling performance, non-toxic attributes, and cost-effectiveness. However, the increased adoption of LFP batteries has led to a surge in spent LFP battery disposal.
Therefore, a comprehensive and in-depth review of the recycling technologies for spent lithium iron phosphate batteries (SLFPBs) is essential. The review provided a visual summary of the existing recycling technologies for various types of SLFPBs, facilitating an objective evaluation of these technologies.
Lithium batteries may remain hazardous waste after being discharged because they contain ignitable solvents. The universal waste regulations allow handlers to remove electrolyte from batteries as long as the battery cell is closed immediately after electrolyte is removed, but this is not a likely management scenario for lithium batteries.
Specifically, lithium batteries pose a fire hazard to waste management workers and collection facilities when disposed of in the municipal waste stream.
Degradation of the battery content (especially electrolyte) in some cases may lead to the emergence of chemicals structurally similar to chemical warfare agents. The initial studies on the (eco)toxicity of the cathode nanomaterials showed that LIBs may pose a threat to living organisms and human health.
Spent LIBs are considered hazardous wastes (especially those from EVs) due to the potential environmental and human health risks. This study provides an up-to-date overview of the environmental impacts and hazards of spent batteries. It categorises the environmental impacts, sources and pollution pathways of spent LIBs.
