ACT like a Recycler but THINK like a Chemical Plant
December 18, 2023On Lithium: Presentations
This presentation provides an overview of the end-to-end Lithium Ion Battery (LIB) recycling process. Discussion examines LIB discharging, dry (inerted) shredding/crushing/granulating, black mass vacuum drying with gas treatment, electrolyte recovery and dedusting, and classifying and sorting of the different fractions. P&ID also explains its engineering services and chemical process assistance for safe scale up of complete turnkey plants from 50 kg/hour to 4 m-tons/hour. Download…
