  1. 1. Effects of pyrolysis and incineration on the chemical composition of Li-ion batteries and analysis of the by-products

    Author : Gabriele Lombardo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NMC batteries; carbothermic reduction; pyrolysis; Lithium-ion batteries; metal recycling;

    Abstract : In the present work, the effects of pyrolysis and incineration on the composition of Li-ion battery cell materials and their dependence on treatment time and temperature were investigated. Waste from Li-ion batteries was treated at 400˚, 500˚, 600˚, and 700˚C for 30, 60, and 90 minutes. READ MORE

  2. 2. Studies on Carbothermic Reduction of Chromite in the Presence of FeOx

    Author : Xianfeng Hu; Yongxiang Yang; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process Metallurgy; Processmetallurgi;

    Abstract : Direct chromium alloying by chromite ore is a promising technology for producing Crcontainingsteels, as the ferrochrome production process and the chromium alloying processare integrated into a single step, which has the potential of saving energy and raw materials.In this work Thermogravimetric Analysis experiments and induction furnace experiments (upto 80-kg scale) have been carried out to investigate the carbothermic reduction process ofchromite in the presence of FeOx (iron, mill scale or magnetite).

  3. 3. Fundamental Studies on Direct Chromium Alloying by Chromite Ore with Designed Alloying Precursor

    Author : Xianfeng Hu; Timo Fabritsius; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process Metallurgy; Processmetallurgi;

    Abstract : Chromium is an important alloying element for stainless steels and other Cr-bearing steels. During the steelmaking process chromium is added to the steels mainly in the form of ferrochrome, which is largely produced by the energy-intensive smelting reduction process of chromite ore in the submerged arc furnace.

  4. 4. Comparison of incineration and pyrolysis of NMC-lithium-ion batteries – determination of the effects on the chemical composition, and potential formation of hazardous by-products

    Author : Gabriele Lombardo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; vacuum; recycling; carbothermal; Keywords: Lithium-ion batteries; incineration; pyrolysis.;

    Abstract : Several industrial lithium battery recycling processes use thermal pre-treatment in an oxidative or inert atmosphere, or in a vacuum, to separate the battery components and remove organic material. However, a comparison of these pre-treatments on the microstructure and composition of waste material and production scrap LiBs has not been explored as well as there is a scarcity of information about the character of by-products generated during the processing.
