According to rough estimates, the number of decommissioned EVs is expected to surpass 40 million by 2040. Therefore, finding an appropriate recycling technology is an absolute must.

The metals in EV batteries pose a significant risk to the environment and health, as they can contaminate water and soil if left alone.

The recycling process restores spent batteries to 100% of their original capacity, making them equivalent to new batteries, as the researchers claim.
