  • The objective of this article is to summarize the commercial lithium ion battery (LIB) recycling processes in Korea and to suggest new direction for LIB recycling. A representative LIB recycler, SungEel Hitech Co. has successfully operated the LIB recycling process for over 10 years, and new recycling processes were recently proposed or developed by many recycling companies and battery manufacturers. In the new recycling processes, lithium is recovered before nickel and cobalt due to the rapid rise in lithium prices, and metal sulfate solution as final product of recycling process can be supplied to manufacturers. The main problem that the new recycling process will face is impurities, which will mainly come from end-of-life electric vehicles or new additives in LIB, although the conventional processes must be improved for mass processing.

Ministry of Environment has established and announced the project for finding and reuse the hidden metal resources as pan-government department pass the Cabinet meeting at September 22, 2009. This countermeasure, 10 years project, is classified into 2 steps. Aim of this project is advance of the recycling technology and industry, achievement of recycling rate, 75%, improvement in adverse balance of trade, 1.25 billion US$.
