![]() The industrial members will also be backed by the automotive sector that will be part of the advisory committee. Academic researchers from Chimie ParisTech and the Norwegian University of Science and Technology will support the members to accelerate the search for innovative solutions. The industrial members of the project are leaders in their sector and are ideally placed in the value chain: SUEZ for collection and dismantling of end-of-life batteries Eramet for the development of the recycling process and BASF for the manufacturing of cathode active materials. The collaboration along the value chain supports an efficient and integrated approach. The objective is to develop an innovative closed-loop process to recycle lithium-ion batteries from electric vehicles and to enable the production of new lithium-ion batteries in Europe.Īs of January 2020, and over a two-year period, the project ReLieVe will carry out a series of activities for the large-scale development of this innovative process and the structuring of an integrated industrial sector: from the collection and dismantling of endof- life batteries going into recycling all the way to the manufacturing of new electrode materials. Schunk Kohlenstofftechnik GmbH is taking on the production of carbon additives or industrially relevant composite materials.Ludwigshafen, Germany Paris, France – The “Recycling Li-ion batteries for electric Vehicle” (ReLieVe) project, founded by Eramet, BASF and SUEZ, will receive a substantial funding of €4.7 million by EIT Raw Materials, a consortium initiated and funded by the European Union, and the three members. Justus Liebig University Giessen is contributing its experience and expertise in characterising interfacial phenomena in solid-state batteries. Scientists at the Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster are researching customised solid electrolytes and their transport properties for the new battery type. The Technical University of Dresden is working on the cathode composite materials and a suitable electrode design. In addition to the project coordination, the Fraunhofer IWS contributes know-how on innovative processes for the production of electrodes and prototype cells to the project. Under the leadership of the Fraunhofer IWS, the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) is funding five partners from science and industry with a total of almost 1.8 million euros. The challenge is to bring the sulphur into close contact with electrically conductive carbon and the ion-conducting electrolytes. The researchers see applications for LiS cells in electric aviation, among others.Īccording to the partners, in addition to the processes for processing and manufacturing, they also want to “holistically” investigate and optimise the nano- and microstructure of the electrodes. ![]() ![]() This is now to be done within the framework of SoLiS: The goal is to develop battery cells with multiple electrode layers based on Li-S solid-state technology and to evaluate them in an application-oriented manner. “However, too little data on application-relevant prototype cells exists so far, so it is not yet possible to evaluate the technology.” “The research results so far are encouraging: the basic feasibility of a Li-S solid state battery has already been demonstrated on a laboratory scale,” writes the Fraunhofer IWS. This basic research is based, among other things, on the joint project “Liscell”, in which the Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology IWS from Dresden was already involved. The research project “SoLiS – Development of Lithium-Sulphur Solid State Batteries in Multilayer Pouch Cells”, which started in July 2021 and is funded by the German government with almost 1.8 million euros, aims to transfer a promising battery concept from basic research to industrial application.
