The growth of e-waste streams brought by accelerated consumption trends and shortened device lifespans is poised to become a global-scale environmental issue at a short-term [1], i.e., the electromotive vehicle industry with its projected 6 million sales for 2020 [[2], [66]].Efforts for the regulation and proper management of electronic residues have had limited
However, conventional damping structures have difficulty in meeting the requirements of wide frequency range and high precision damping under complex operating conditions. Therefore, the design of efficient damping structures is one of the key challenges in the development of vibration control technology. Organisms have evolved over millions of
Li-ion batteries have an extremely high energy density and do not require regular maintenance. However, they are unavailable in consumer sizes due to the risk of explosion if charged with a
Among the commercially available battery chemistries, Li-ion batteries offer features such as high efficiency, high gravimetric and volumetric densities, longer lifespan and low maintenance requirements that are all essential for setting up an efficient energy storage system [5–7]. Currently, the cost of manufacturing an EV
To achieve these sustainability goals, the EU battery regulation establishes new due diligence requirements for battery manufacturers and importers with a net turnover of at least 40 million EUR (companies falling below this threshold are exempt from these requirements). These new obligations are being set forth with an eye to the extraction
To address these issues, a review of the recycling of spent batteries, emphasizing the importance and potential value of recycling is conducted. Besides, the recycling policies and strategies
It aims to ensure that, in the future, batteries have a low carbon footprint, use minimal harmful substances, need fewer raw materials from non-European Union (EU) countries and are
As the demand for batteries continues to surge in various industries, effective recycling of used batteries has become crucial to mitigate environmental hazards and promote a sustainable future. This review article provides an overview of current technologies available for battery recycling, highlighting their strengths and limitations.
China should make greater efforts to address battery supply chain bottlenecks and boost domestic electric vehicle demand, political advisers and analysts said during the nation''s annual parliamentary session that ended March 11.. The country, which accounted for over 60% of global electric vehicle output and sales, will "consolidate and enhance our leading

It aims to ensure that, in the future, batteries have a low carbon footprint, use minimal harmful substances, need fewer raw materials from non-European Union (EU) countries and are collected, reused and recycled to a high degree within the EU.
Batteries are a crucial element in the EU''s transition to a climate-neutral economy. On 10 December 2020, the European Commission presented a proposal designed to modernise the EU''s regulatory framework for batteries in order to secure the sustainability and competitiveness of battery value chains.
Battery sustainability is discussed with respect to life-cycle assessment and analyzed from the perspectives of strategic resources and economic demand. Finally, a 4H strategy is proposed for battery recycling with the aims of high efficiency, high economic return, high environmental benefit, and high safety. New challenges and future prospects
Lithium-ion batteries are a typical and representative energy storage technology in secondary batteries. In order to achieve high charging rate performance, which is often required in electric vehicles (EV), anode design is a key component for future lithium-ion battery (LIB) technology. Graphite is currently the most widely used anode material
where have to get to work, goods need to arrive at their destinations, children have to get to school, or people simply want to enjoy the ride. Without being aware of it, they always rely on a pleasant ride and thus on damping technology. Damping "irons out" bumps in the road, keeps the wheels on the road surface even when cornering,
1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The current status of lithium-ion battery (LIB) waste and metal supply–demand scenario. Increasing global energy demands and environmental devastation 1, 2 have fueled the development of green technology and energy storage devices. With their high efficiency, better power density, extended durability, and compact size, LIBs have evolved into
As the demand for batteries continues to surge in various industries, effective recycling of used batteries has become crucial to mitigate environmental hazards and promote
Portable batteries of general use, excluding button cells, will be required to meet minimum values for performance and durability. The relevant minimum requirements are set out in Annex III of the Regulation and can be amended by the European Commission.
"Lithium-ion is currently the most efficient battery technology available, but the materials used have largely remained unchanged, which has led to in the last five years delivering only 1-2%
The new Regulation on batteries establish sustainability and safety requirements that batteries should comply with before being placed on the market. These rules are applicable to all batteries
Negotiators agreed on stronger requirements to make batteries more sustainable, performant and durable. According to the deal, a carbon footprint declaration and label will be obligatory for EV batteries, LMT batteries and rechargeable industrial batteries with a capacity above 2kWh.

To address these issues, a review of the recycling of spent batteries, emphasizing the importance and potential value of recycling is conducted. Besides, the recycling policies and strategies implemented in representative countries are summarized, providing legal and policy support for the recycling industry.
Portable batteries of general use, excluding button cells, will be required to meet minimum values for performance and durability. The relevant minimum requirements are set out in Annex III of
Many recycling companies take in a range of inputs (e.g. washing machines) at the same time as batteries. Recycling companies also have to manage variable feedstocks. Some countries shred and burn the whole battery, leaving remnants of plastic in the black mass. This is a challenge for refining and upcycling if and when material comes to UK. 3.
Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 concerning batteries and waste batteries WHAT IS THE AIM OF THE REGULATION? It aims to ensure that, in the future, batteries have a low carbon footprint, use minimal harmful substances, need fewer raw materials from non- European Union (EU) countries and are collected, reused and recycled to a high degree within the EU.
By 2030, the recovery levels should reach 95 % for cobalt, copper, lead and nickel, and 70 % for lithium; requirements relating to the operations of repurposing and remanufacturing for a second life of industrial and EV batteries; labelling and information requirements.
The new Regulation on batteries establish sustainability and safety requirements that batteries should comply with before being placed on the market. These rules are applicable to all batteries entering the EU market, independently of their origin.
The Regulation regulates the entire life-cycle of batteries, including reuse and recycling, and ensures that the industry takes steps to reduce the adverse environmental and human health impacts associated with production and disposal.
10 December 2020 is geared towards modernising EU legislation on batteries in order to ensure the sustainability and competitiveness of EU battery value chains. The proposal is part of the European Green Deal and related initiatives, including the new circular economy action plan and the new industrial strategy.
