Description
Disassembly and processing mainly include three steps: first, battery evaluation; second, disassembling the battery into modules; third, disassembling the modules into individual cells. The overall process includes scanning and data entry, battery pack storage, surface cleaning, residual energy detection and charge-discharge testing, preliminary disassembly, secondary disassembly of battery modules, inspection and sorting, as well as cell sorting and performance evaluation. The collection and transportation of this by-product are not considered within their respective market activities. This dataset applies to the disassembly process of retired lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery cells.
Activity Description
This dataset represents the processing of retired lithium iron phosphate batteries from fields such as power, consumer electronics, and energy storage through a disassembly process. It includes energy (electricity) and auxiliary material (rags, insulating tape) consumption, as well as emissions of solid waste (spent rags, spent insulating tape) and air pollutants (dust).
Process Description
Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cells are the core components of lithium iron phosphate batteries, primarily consisting of parts such as the cathode, anode, separator, electrolyte, and casing.
