Recovery of LiCoO2 and graphite from spent lithium-ion batteries by molten-salt electrolysis

Summary: The recovery of spent lithium-ion batteries has not only economic value but also ecological benefits. In this paper, molten-salt electrolysis was employed to recover spent LiCoO2 batteries, in which NaCl-Na2CO3 melts were used as the electrolyte, the graphite rod and the mixtures of the spe...
