UCSD researchers improve method to recycle and renew used cathodes from Li-ion batteries via eutectic molten salts

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the University of California San Diego have improved their recycling process that regenerates degraded cathodes from spent lithium-ion batteries. The team is tuning this process so that it can be used to recycle any type of cathode materials used in lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries. 2019) “Ambient?Pressure
