Over 60% of lithium produced in 2019 were utilised for the manufacture of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), the compact and high-density energy storage devices crucial for low-carbon emission electric-based vehicles (EVs) and secondary storage media for renewable energy sources like solar and wind.
The exploitation and utilization of fossil energy will also be maintained at a low level and the environmental burden will be reduced. Therefore, zero-carbon transition of the front-end power system has a synergistic effect on the recovery process of lithium-ion power batteries.
Moreover, the skyrocketing demand projected for lithium and cobalt could make LIBs recycling more profitable and economically viable as a stand-alone industry (Dewulf et al., 2010, Manivannan, 2016, Wei et al., 2018). 4.1. Global status of end-of-life lithium-ion battery recycling
Lithium-ion batteries have been identified as the most environmentally benign amongst BESS . However, there is little consensus on their life cycle GWP impacts requiring further LCA study as this paper offers. 2. Literature Review for the Technical and Environmental Performances of BESS
Recycling of LIBs will reduce the environmental impact of the batteries by reducing carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions in terms of saving natural resources to reduce raw materials mining. Therefore, it could also manage safety issues and eliminate waste production ( Bankole et al., 2013 ).
The raw material production for batteries has a huge ramifying effect. Mostly the raw materials used in LIBs are extracted from their respective ores with mainly focusing on Li, Co, Ni, and Mn as they are used in the production of cathode materials in the LIBs.
