Covina, Oct. 19, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Electric Vehicle Battery Recycling Market accounted for US$ 1.93 billion in 2022 and is estimated to be US$ 30.5 billion by 2032 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 31.8%. Advancement in recycling of EV (electric vehicle) batteries helps in improving metallurgical process by increasing extraction and efficiency of copper, nickel and cobalt which may reach over 95% yield for variety of batteries. Recycling of EV batteries also helps in recovering most of lithium. Lithium-ion batteries are mostly used in electric vehicles. Electric vehicle batteries are composed of hundreds and thousands of individual lithium-ion cells. EV batteries lasts for 5 to 8 years. Chile is the world’s largest known lithium reserves with 8 million tons. Argentine reserves (2 million tons), China (1 million tons). Portugal and Europe has smaller quantities of valuable raw material. There are different types of batteries used in electric vehicles like lead-acid battery invented in 1859 with both combustion and electric engines, nickel-cadmium battery, lithium-ion battery, solid-state battery, nickel-metal hydride battery etc. Most popular Tesla battery pack has across 7,104,18650 cells divided into 16,444 cell modules. Lithium-ion batteries are best batteries for EV cars due to their lightweight properties and it holds lot of energy. Demand for EV vehicles is increasing which has expanded the battery recycling market. Recycling process has different methods of separation for recovery of materials. Smelting is the process which recovers salts and basic elements. Direct recovery process is the low temperature process with minimal energy requirement. Intermediate process is the process between two extremes. However, rapid growth in zero emission vehicle like electric vehicles has become popular. Awareness among people about environment, expensive fuel cost has given rise in use of electric vehicles. Rising use of electric vehicles has fueled…
