Chemical analysis of recycling fractions from battery cells
The recycling of battery cells is rapidly gaining in importance, particularly due to the growth in electromobility. Legal requirements set quotas for the collection and recycling of lithium-ion batteries. In order to monitor the efficiency of the processes used and the quality of the results, we offer you tailor-made solutions for the instrumental analysis of the individual recycling fractions.
Our analyses enable the composition of individual recycling fractions to be determined and the quality to be monitored. This is of immense importance for the use of the relevant materials in the production of new batteries. Our experts in materialography and chemical analysis will guide you through the entire recycling process.
Our work focuses on the analysis of recycling fractions, such as plastic film, metal foil, heavy material and black mass, so that you are always aware of their quality and can draw conclusions about the market value of the fractions. In this way, we effectively support your company in recovering valuable raw materials.
Instrumental analysis for recycling fractions
- Sample preparation: sieving, grinding and breaking down the individual fractions
- Determination of the particle size distribution
- Determination of material composition and concentrations, e.g. lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese, copper or aluminum
- Determination of plastics and their proportions
- Determination of the VOC content
- Determination of the water/dry content
- Electrolyte analysis
- Determination of solvents
