RHINOCEROS Batteries reuse and direct production of high performances cathodic and anodic materials and other raw materials from batteries recycling using low cost and environmentally friendly technologies
Forskningsprojekt, 2022
– 2026
When the battery of an electric car comes to the end of its life, it is not inactive but has a capacity of at least 75 %. Therefore, it can be repurposed for up to a decade in applications such as stationary energy storage. The EU-funded RHINOCEROS project will seek economical and environmentally friendly routes for reusing, repurposing, reconditioning and recycling end-of-life batteries. Researchers plan to develop a smart system enabling the automated classification of battery materials and the reassembly of working modules in new repurposed batteries. Furthermore, they will investigate ways to cheaply produce high-performance materials for the anode and cathode from the recycled materials. Project achievements will help prevent Europe’s technological dependence on other parts of the world.
