Some good news - advancements in battery recycling mean that an EV is increasingly better for our environment. There have always been concerns about the social and environmental impact of mining for the minerals needed for the batteries. Developments in battery recycling will help EV truly replace the gasoline vehicles.

Battery recycling is not just about recovering valuable materials; it's also about reducing the environmental impact of battery production. This article - https://lnkd.in/dN_fyicY - by Laolu discusses the importance of sustainable battery recycling practices and how they can contribute to a circular economy. #BatteryRecycling #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #BatteryRecycling #Sustainability #EnergyTransition #recycling #battery #EV #EVbattery #Lithium #Cobalt #Nickel #batterychemistry #oil #zeroemission #mining #greeneconomy

Did you know #lithium-ion battery recycling is key to creating a circular economy? By recovering critical materials like lithium and cobalt, we reduce the need for new mining and keep valuable resources in circulation. At Attero we’re closing the loop on waste through innovative recycling. What role do you see circularity playing in our sustainable future? #circularity #battery #recycling #epr #cpcb #sustainability #metals #minerals

🔋 Recycling: A Solution to Battery Materials Shortages! 🌍 As the demand for #EV #batteries skyrockets, recycling spent batteries and manufacturing scrap offers a critical supply of minerals like lithium, nickel, and cobalt. ♻️ By 2050, we could recycle up to 50 million batteries, cutting down the need for new mining operations. 🌱 #Sustainability #EVRevolution #BatteryRecycling #CleanEnergy #CircularEconomy #GreenTech https://lnkd.in/dMYq_aWP

Curious about where your retired EV battery goes? We would like to show you how CATL gives waste batteries a new life through our cutting-edge Directional Recycling Technology (DRT). With DRT, CATL recovers up to 91% of lithium and 99.6% of nickel, cobalt, and manganese in waste batteries. The recovered minerals are just as good as materials obtained first-time through mining and smelting, and will be used to produce brand-new batteries with uncompromising quality and reliability to power up your green journey.🚗 Sustainability is not a one-time race for trophies, but a never-ending drive with wondrous views alongside. Let’s keep the wheels spinning toward a greener future together!♻ #GlobalRecyclingDay #BatteryRecycling #Recycle #EV #StayPoweredWithCATL

Tool in the toolbox. Closed loop recycling of rare metals, especially platinum group metals, from catalytic converters, turbines and electronics using solvents. Mining rare metals is becoming increasingly difficult as they don't form concentrated ore bodies and the easy stuff is already mined and used and discarded. Need to get these end of life resources before sent to landfill. Without waste water and waste gases and without using lots of energy. https://lnkd.in/gKUq99dN

Climate change is pushing the world to quickly adopt electrification and cut down on fossil fuel use. While batteries provide a solution, the essential metals needed for them often travel thousands of miles to reach manufacturing plants, resulting in high costs and unsustainability. The choice between mining new materials and recycling or urban mining is crucial to obtaining these critical minerals with a smaller carbon footprint. LITCONIK is revolutionizing the battery supply chain by providing substantial, eco-friendly sources of domestic anode and cathode materials. These materials are produced from a growing amount of recycled batteries and are supplied directly to cell manufacturers. #RecyclingRevolution #CircularEconomy #SustainableFuture #ZeroWaste #EcoFriendly

"When recycling isn't working in the free market, there is usually a cause. The amount of material or scale of collection may be too limited, or there may be a subsidy on virgin material (General Mining Act of 1872). The biggest problem is self-inflicted by environmentalists - regulations are more strict in proportion to property values, leading to stronger enforcement against lightly polluting industries (recycling, secondary smelting) and lax enforcement of heavily polluting industries (mining, primary smelting)." From my "About Me" Linkedin page. https://lnkd.in/esRD3uc2 The two problems we face are: 1) Capitalists who take advantage of raw material subsidies. 2) Anti-Capitalists who battle based on "their silo" waste. Fetishism by #2 is draining all the environmental capital. Both are a problem.
