Material and energy flows in the materials production, assembly, and end-of-life stages of the automotive lithium-ion battery life cycle

Technical Report Dunn, J B ; Gaines, L ; Barnes, M ; ...

This document contains material and energy flows for lithium-ion batteries with an active cathode material of lithium manganese oxide (LiMn{sub 2}O{sub 4}). These data are incorporated into Argonne National Laboratory's Greenhouse gases, Regulated Emissions, and Energy use in Transportation (GREET) model, replacing previous data for lithium-ion batteries that are based on a nickel/cobalt/manganese (Ni/Co/Mn) cathode chemistry. To identify and determine the mass of lithium-ion battery components, we modeled batteries with LiMn{sub 2}O{sub 4} as the cathode material using Argonne's Battery Performance and Cost (BatPaC) model for hybrid electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and electric vehicles.

High Performance Cathode Recovery from Different Electric Vehicle Recycling Streams

Journal Article Zheng, Zhangfeng ; Chen, Mengyuan ; Wang, Qiang ; ... - ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering

For environmental and sustainability reasons, spent Li-ion batteries must be recovered and recycled so that the full promise of an electrified future is realized. Li-ion battery recycling streams pose a serious challenge to all existing recycling technologies due to their unknown and diverse chemistry. In this work, four representative recycling streams were used to demonstrate the flexibility of the recycling process developed at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) to accommodate a variable feed and generate consistent quality cathode material, LiNi _1/3Mn _1/3Co _1/3O ₂ (NMC111). Ni _1/3Mn _1/3CO _1/3(OH) ₂ precursors derived from four recycling streams were produced by a hydroxidemore »« less

Operando Observations and First-Principles Calculations of Reduced Lithium Insertion in Au-Coated LiMn ₂O ₄

Journal Article Bassett, Kimberly L. ; Warburton, Robert E. ; Deshpande, Siddharth ; ... - Advanced Materials Interfaces

The deposition of protective coatings on the spinel LiMn ₂O ₄ (LMO) lithium–ion battery cathode is effective in reducing Mn dissolution from the electrode surface. Although protective coatings positively affect LMO cycle life, much remains to be understood regarding the interface formed between these coatings and LMO. Using operando powder X–ray diffraction with Rietveld refinement, it is shown that, in comparison to bare LMO, the lattice parameter of a model Au–coated LMO cathode is significantly reduced upon relithiation. Less charge passes through Au–coated LMO in comparison to bare LMO, suggesting that the reduced lattice parameter is associated with decreased Limore »« less

A new anion receptor for improving the interface between lithium- and manganese-rich layered oxide cathode and the electrolyte

Journal Article Ma, Yulin ; Zhou, Yan ; Du, Chunyu ; ... - Chemistry of Materials

Surface degradation on cycled lithium-ion battery cathode particles is governed not only by intrinsic thermodynamic properties of the material but also, oftentimes more predominantly, by the side reactions with the electrolytic solution. A superior electrolyte inhibits these undesired side reactions on the cathode and at the electrolyte interface, which consequently minimizes the deterioration of the cathode surface. The present study investigates a new boron-based anion receptor, tris(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)borate (TTFEB), as an electrolyte additive in cells containing a lithium- and manganese-rich layered oxide cathode, Li _1.16Ni _0.2Co _0.1Mn _0.54O ₂. Our electrochemical studies demonstrate that the cycling performance and Coulombic efficiency aremore »« less
