The waste batteries of 6, tons of new energy vehicles are frightening. What should I do? Here comes the way!

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, new energy vehicles are still a new product. It has been 1 years since the project of "1 vehicles in ten cities" in 29. Ten years, this time is not long, but it is enough for the first batch of new energy vehicle batteries to enter the market. After all, at the current technical level, the service life of lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles is only about 3-5 years, which means that they are at the critical point of elimination.

In order to guide the sustained and healthy development of the industry and ensure the safe and effective recycling of power batteries. On January 2nd, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology published the Industrial Standard Conditions for Comprehensive Utilization of Waste Power Batteries of New Energy Vehicles (219 edition) (hereinafter referred to as the "Standard Conditions") and the Interim Measures for the Administration of Industry Standard Announcement for Comprehensive Utilization of Waste Power Batteries of New Energy Vehicles (219 edition) (hereinafter referred to as the "Measures").

effectively recycle waste electricity?

From the content of the Specification Conditions, it respectively affects enterprise layout and project site selection; Technology, equipment and technology; Comprehensive utilization of resources and energy consumption; Environmental protection; Product quality and vocational education; Safety in production, personal health and social responsibility have made clear requirements.

It is mentioned in the Specifications and Conditions that the recycling of waste batteries should meet the requirements of traceability management for the recycling of power batteries in new energy vehicles, and have the ability of information traceability, such as traceability information system, code identification and other facilities and equipment; Enterprises should follow the relevant national and industry standards, as well as the technical information such as disassembly, disassembly and historical data provided by new energy vehicle manufacturers, and follow the principle of step-by-step utilization before recycling to improve the comprehensive utilization level.

In addition, the Specification also encourages enterprises to establish a complete information-based production process management system, including but not limited to the sources of waste power batteries, main parameters (types, capacities, product codes, etc.), disassembly and testing, comprehensive utilization, product flow and waste disposal measures, and establish a comprehensive utilization database of waste power batteries to improve information management and technical level.

The amount of discarded batteries is quite large

It is very necessary to trace and manage the discarded batteries. Because since the promotion of new energy vehicles, the weight of waste batteries it produces is really too large.

since electric vehicles began to scale gradually in 29, the development speed of new energy vehicles is very fast. Although it was affected by the subsidy of new energy and the recession of the automobile market last year, from the cumulative sales data, the sales of new energy vehicles are still relatively strong. From January to November 219, the cumulative sales volume of new energy vehicles was 784,, up 4.6% year-on-year.

The ever-growing new energy vehicles have also brought huge scrapped batteries. I still remember that China Automotive Technology and Research Center once made a calculation, and combined with the factors such as automobile scrapping years and battery life, power batteries will enter the stage of large-scale retirement. From 218 to 22, the cumulative scrapped power batteries in China will reach 12,-2, tons, and the scale will reach 35, tons in 225. According to the current forecast that the cumulative number will exceed 2, tons (24.6GWh) in 22, if 7% of the batteries can be used for cascade utilization, about 6, tons of batteries need to be scrapped. This means that the wave of large-scale scrapping of power batteries for new energy vehicles is coming.

how terrible is battery pollution?

there is no doubt that the development of electric vehicles is to protect the environment, but compared with the pollution of fuel vehicles, the pollution caused by power batteries is shocking enough!

some people may ask, batteries are so harmful, so why should everyone develop electric vehicles? In fact, the lithium power battery commonly used in electric vehicles does not contain heavy metals such as lead and cadmium, which are widely criticized. But even without the pollution of these heavy metals, technically speaking, its electrolyte still includes heavy metals such as nickel, cobalt and manganese.

moreover, for the lithium power battery widely used in electric vehicles at present, its harm mainly lies in its scrap back-end treatment. If it is not recycled properly, it is very likely to repeat the mistakes of lead-acid batteries in those years, causing serious pollution to the environment. In addition, after being scrapped, it still has a high voltage ranging from 3 to 1 V. If it is not handled properly in the process of recovery, disassembly and treatment, there may still be many problems such as fire and explosion, heavy metal pollution and organic waste gas emission. Of course, compared with traditional mercury and cadmium batteries, lithium batteries do have less pollution, but they are by no means negligible. If you throw it casually, the consequences will be unimaginable, which may be worse than the oil burned by the fuel car.

Small words

The pollution of batteries is no less than that of fuel vehicles. Although the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has published the Standard Conditions and Measures for scrapped batteries, the technology of the idealized "step-by-step utilization" method is not mature enough, and the profit from dismantling and recycling is particularly low, which makes it difficult to recycle scrapped batteries. Do you have any good ideas about the recycling of scrapped batteries? How to solve the battery pollution?
