Steps For Recycling of Soft Pack Battery

How to recycle soft pack battery?

1. Collection and categorization

Firstly, the used soft pack batteries need to be collected centrally.

Classify the batteries according to their chemical composition, degree of capacity degradation, size and other parameters.

2. Discharge treatment

In order to ensure the safety of the recycling process, the battery needs to be discharged to release the remaining power.

3. Dismantling and separation for recycling

Through the use of professional recycling equipment, lithium battery recycling equipment recovers valuable resources in lithium batteries, separating positive and negative electrode materials, diaphragm, electrolyte and black mass and other resources.

4. Chemical extraction

Using physical, chemical or a combination of both methods, the valuable metals in the positive and negative electrode materials are separated and extracted. For example, cobalt, nickel, lithium and other metals are extracted by leaching, precipitation, extraction and other chemical processes.

5. Electrolyte treatment

Special treatment of electrolyte to prevent it from polluting the environment.

6. Recycling

The extracted valuable metals can be used to make new battery materials and realize the recycling of resources.

In the whole recycling process, strict environmental protection and safety standards need to be followed in order to minimize the impact on the environment and guarantee the safety of operators. At the same time, it is also crucial to continuously improve and optimize the recycling technology to increase the recycling efficiency and resource utilization rate.
