Project description DEENESFRITPL Smart logistics for improved battery durability and recycling Batteries play a crucial role in machinery, tools, and everyday appliances, but they also generate large amounts of waste. The recycling sector faces challenges in efficiently, safely, and cost-effectively managing and recycling this waste. In this context, the EU-funded RECIRCULATE project aims to improve the reuse and recycling value chain by developing an innovative blockchain-based platform that will advance battery waste processing techniques. These efforts will result in the creation of unique battery passports that reduce waste and enhance end-of-life maintenance, reuse, recycling, and manufacturing processes. As a result, novel circular value chains will be established, enabling minimised energy consumption, reduced costs, and less environmental damage. This, in turn, will vastly improve battery sustainability and durability. Show the project objective Hide the project objective Objective RECIRCULATE addresses the needs of European recycling sector by overcoming current challenges relating to automated dismantling and sorting; safe logistics; fast, cost-effective and reliable State of Health and State of Safety characterization. Combining these advances with a blockchain-based platform, that will combine the data collected during dismantling and recycling and the battery provenance, will enable a unique battery passport and virtual marketplace for e-mobility, consumer and stationary Battery Energy Storage Systems. This approach will enable the RECIRCULATE consortium to create a cascade approach that will enable increased end-of-life battery repair, reuse, remanufacture and recycling.The advances in RECIRCULATE will based on best-in-world innovations, including:• Automated dismantling based on Artificial Intelligence with accurate sorting by SoX and battery provenance for recycling.• Fast, cost-effective, reliable SoX characterization; Safe storage and transportation based on smart logistics solutions.• Blockchain-based Battery Passports that tracks key battery data, and enables both a complete circular system for e-mobility batteries and a unique, blockchain-based virtual marketplace.The unique virtual marketplace will allow for the creation of new circular business models for repair, reuse, remanufacture and recycling of second-life batteries, minimizing cost, time, energy and environmental impact whilst maximizing battery value.RECIRCULATE represents a pan-European consortium of world leading organisations that are looking to commercialize these technologies of European origin. The coordinator, Centria, is leading activities in battery dismantling. The consortium is strengthened by very large organisations, including: Ford, who are currently undertaking development for e-mobility, and DHL a global leader in logistics and reverse logistics as well as European SMEs with world leading technologies.
