Cobalt and lanthanide recovery from batteries (COLABATS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

"The COLABATS project will provide new industrial processes for the recycling of the critical metals Cobalt and Lanthanides and key economic metals Nickel and Lithium, from waste batteries, significantly improving recycling efficiencies and metal purity from existing recovery routes. Primarily Li-ion and NiMH will be targeted using novel task specific ionic liquids (TSILs) to selectively extract t ...

...mented, including the detrimental impact on human health. Some member states undertake no end-of-life battery processing, all their waste products are sent to other states for recovery and recycling. The transportation of a hazardous waste such as whole batteries is a potential environmental risk in terms of possible lead and acid contamination. It is easier, cheaper and safer to send separate ...
