By providing a nuanced understanding of the environmental, economic, and social dimensions of lithium-based batteries, the framework guides policymakers, manufacturers, and consumers toward more informed and sustainable choices in battery production, utilization, and end-of-life management.
For instance, the goal may be to evaluate the environmental, social, and economic impacts of the batteries and identify opportunities for improvement. Alternatively, the goal may include comparing the sustainability performance of various Li-based battery types or rating the sustainability of the entire battery supply chain.
Akasapu and Hehenberger, (2023) found similar conclusion that Global Warming Potential (GWP) and Abiotic Depletion Potential (ADP) are critical factor for environmental impacts . The current findings also reveal that climate change (fossil) contribute the major environmental impacts during LCA of lithium ion batteries.
Life cycle assessment (LCA) of lithium-oxygen Li−O 2 battery showed that the system had a lower environmental impact compared to the conventional NMC-G battery, with a 9.5 % decrease in GHG emissions to 149 g CO 2 eq km −1 .
Compared to alternative recycling methods, pyrometallurgical recycling of lithium-ion batteries recovers metals (62% Co and 96% Ni), produces large quantities of non -recyclable aluminum and lithium in slag after the smelting process, and also uses expensive reducing agents (Tao et al. 2021).
Lithium-based batteries are essential because of their increasing importance across several industries, particularly when it comes to electric vehicles and renewable energy storage. Sustainable batteries throughout their entire life cycle represent a key enabling technology for the zero pollution objectives of the European Green Deal.
