Conclusions It is essential to note that, in addition to recycling electrode materials and precursors from spent lithium-ion batteries, significant profits can also be gained from the pretreatment process. The metals, such as aluminum, copper, and iron, recovered during the pretreatment phase hold great value .
Lithium iron phosphate batteries (LFPBs) have gained widespread acceptance for energy storage due to their exceptional properties, including a long-life cycle and high energy density. Currently, lithium-ion batteries are experiencing numerous end-of-life issues, which necessitate urgent recycling measures.
In this concept paper, various methods for the recycling of lithium iron phosphate batteries were presented, with a major focus given to hydrometallurgical processes due to the significant advantages over pyrometallurgical routes.
In recent years, lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries in electric vehicles have significantly increased concerns over potential environmental threats. Besides reducing environmental pollution, recycling valuable materials is crucial for resource utilization.
Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries are broadly used in the automotive industry, particularly in electric vehicles (EVs), due to their low cost, high capacity, long cycle life, and safety . Since the demand for EVs and energy storage solutions has increased, LFP has been proven to be an essential raw material for Li-ion batteries .
Researchers have conducted various studies to recover lithium (Li) from used LFP batteries. These studies mostly focus on hydrometallurgical or a combination of pyro/hydrometallurgical methods. The main aim is to enhance the separation of Li from the major impurity Fe and minor impurities like Al, Cu, and others.
