News 13: [15k-ton Waste Li-ion Battery Recycling and Reutilization Project Launched in Linyi, Shandong] Recently, the media released the first public announcement on EIA for the annual 15,000-ton waste LIB recycling and reutilization expansion project. The project involves a total investment of RMB 50 million, located in Yinhe New District, Linyi, Shandong. It consists of a safe storage facility for waste LIBs and one waste LIB recycling and reutilization production line. Upon completion, it will achieve an annual processing capacity of 15,000 tons of waste LIB materials, recycling 12,461.55 tons of waste 3C LIB powder, waste LFP battery powder, waste NCM battery powder, and waste cell powder per year.

News 14: [100k-ton Waste Li-ion Battery Recycling and Comprehensive Utilization Project Launched in Changxing, Zhejiang] Recently, the local government released the public notice on the EIA for the LIB full-life-cycle comprehensive utilization base construction project. The project involves a total investment of RMB 82.06 million, located in Xiaopu Town, Changxing County, Huzhou, Zhejiang. It consists of waste LIB recycling & regeneration, cascade utilization, and recycling & dismantling & crushing & regeneration treatment production lines, as well as LIB Pack production, cell testing & sorting, module assembly, and Pack production lines. After reaching full capacity, it will achieve an annual processing capacity of 100,000 tons of waste LIBs and electrode sheets, and an annual output of 3 GWh high-energy Pack battery packs.

 

News 15: [120k-ton Waste New Energy Power Battery Comprehensive Utilization Project Launched in Yangquan, Shanxi] Recently, the ecological environment authority released the public notice on the draft EIA document for the annual 120,000-ton waste new energy power battery comprehensive utilization project (Phase I). The project involves a total investment of RMB 570 million, with Phase I investment of RMB 30 million, located in the Weibo Park of Yangquan High-tech Industrial Development Zone. Phase I consists of an annual 20,000-ton waste new energy power battery dismantling & crushing production line and a 5,000-ton waste new energy battery cascade utilization production line. Upon completion, Phase I will achieve an annual processing capacity of 20,000 tons of waste new energy power batteries and 5,000 tons of cascade utilization.

News 16: [15k-ton Waste Power Battery Regeneration Project Launched in Jiande, Zhejiang] Recently, the local government released the EIA public notice for the waste power battery regeneration project. The project involves a total investment of RMB 137 million, located in Hangzhou Jiande High-tech Industrial Park. It consists of newly built dry process workshop, wet process workshop, comprehensive warehouse, and solid waste warehouse, adopting advanced domestic process technologies and equipping with discharging systems, pyrolysis furnaces, leaching kettles, impurity removal kettles, etc. Upon completion, it will achieve an annual processing capacity of 15,000 tons of waste power batteries and 10,000 tons of LFP battery black mass.

News 17: [10k-ton LFP Black Mass Production Line Construction Project Launched in Tongren, Guizhou] Recently, the local economic development zone released the pre-approval public notice on the EIA report for the annual 10,000-ton LFP black mass production line construction project at the industrial base. The project involves a total investment of RMB 42.69 million, located on the reserved land of the existing plant area in the economic development zone. It consists of one 10,000-ton LFP black mass oxidative lithium extraction production line, which uses LFP battery black mass through acid leaching, impurity removal and other processes to produce lithium sulfate solution. Upon completion, it will achieve an annual output capacity of 27,519 tons of lithium sulfate solution.
