AI Customer Service“Rare earths do not enter, or only in very small quantities (possibly as an additive), in the composition of Lithium-ion (Li-ion), sodium-sulfur (NaS) and lead-acid (PbA) batteries, which are the most common. Only nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries include a rare earth alloy at the cathode.
Graphite, the mineral used in the anode, follows the cathode minerals. The subsection “Secondary Mineral Supply” discusses EV battery recycling as a potential supply option available for the five minerals. Each mineral subheading contains information on the element’s mineralization and geologic formation.
Rare and/or expensive battery materials are unsuitable for widespread practical application, and an alternative has to be found for the currently prevalent lithium-ion battery technology. In this review article, we discuss the current state-of-the-art of battery materials from a perspective that focuses on the renewable energy market pull.
Other materials include steel in the casing that protects the cell from external damage, along with copper, used as the current collector for the anode. There are several types of lithium-ion batteries with different compositions of cathode minerals.
Based on revenue potential per unit mass, didymium (Nd + Pr) metal and high-grade nickel metal are the two most valuable co-products which are recovered via recycling of the batteries. Despite comprising less than 1% of the total recovered materials by mass, didymium generates over 14% of the total potential revenue from all products recovered.
Battery materials saw particularly large declines with lithium spot prices plummeting by 75% and cobalt, nickel, and graphite prices dropping by 30-45%.
