Description du projet
Un meilleur recyclage des batteries pour un avenir propre
Les batteries jouent un rôle crucial dans les innovations énergétiques de demain, car très prisées par les domaines des énergies renouvelables et des sources d’énergie mobiles. À mesure que le marché européen des batteries se développe, il est nécessaire de faire preuve d’innovation pour parvenir à mettre en œuvre une économie circulaire. Le projet BATRAW, financé par l’UE, entend apporter l’innovation nécessaire en recherchant et en développant différentes technologies et méthodologies destinées à améliorer le recyclage des batteries. Le projet vise à recycler jusqu’à 98 % des éléments de batteries, à instaurer des processus de recyclage plus sûrs et plus efficaces et à améliorer la gestion des matériaux recyclés et des chaînes de valeur. La réalisation de ces objectifs permettra au projet de contribuer à un marché durable des batteries et de réduire l’incidence de la production et de l’élimination des batteries sur l’environnement.
Objectif
BATRAW main objective is to develop and demonstrate two innovative pilot systems for sustainable recycling and end of life management of EV batteries, domestic batteries, and battery scraps contributing to the generation of secondary streams of strategically important CRMs and battery RMs. The first pilot will deliver innovative technologies and processes for dismantling of battery packs achieving recovery of 95% of battery pack components and separating waste streams including cells and modules by semi-automated processes for recycling. BATRAW's second pilot will scale and demonstrate efficient pre-treatment and continuous hydrometallurgical recycling of battery cells and modules including innovative steps for C-graphite, Al and Cu separation from black mass and Mn extraction, achieving a recovery of the full range of battery RMs (Co, Ni, Mn, Li, C-graphite, Al and Cu) at selectivity of 90-98%. Innovations wil be scaled and demonstrated in a pilot systems with recycling capacity of 1 ton lithium-ion battery (LIB) packs dismantled per shift (8 hours) and treat 300 kg BM per day. BATRAW outcomes are of strategic importance within the prospects of the exponentially growing EU battery market and reducing EU import dependency of CRMs. The project will further promote the overall sustainability and circularity of battery products and raw materials by developing new procedures for battery repair and reuse, enabling faster diagnostics and conversion of EV packs into second life batteries, delivering eco-design guidelines for battery manufacturing, demonstrating blockchain platform for raw material tracking and supply chain transparency (Battery Passport) and delivering guidelines for safe transports and handling of battery waste. The project aims to maximize market uptake and impact through ambitious C&D&E plan including circular business models, innovations workshops, dissemination in EU platforms, policy briefs and other strategies to reach markets and stakeholders.
