Abstract

See full text

A method for recycling secondary battery charge materials includes a one-step molten-salt process to upcycle mixed Ni-lean polycrystalline NMC cathodes into Ni-rich single-crystal NMC cathodes. The method includes receiving a recycling stream of charge materials from end-of-lifetime batteries, adding additional charge materials based on an upcycled battery chemistry intended for the upgraded, recycled battery, and sintering the combined charge materials for generating a single crystal charge material corresponding to the upcycled battery chemistry using a molten salt direct recycling process.
