SMM8, 16 March: recently, according to a report by the Ministry of Science and Technology, the national key R & D plan "reuse of solid waste resources" has deployed the R & D task of "heterogeneous compatible utilization and intelligent disassembly technology of decommissioned power batteries," which has been publicly declared and strictly reviewed. The project led by Tianjin Lishen Battery Co., Ltd. was finally established.

At present, the number of new energy vehicles in China is more than 2.19 million, which is expected to reach 500 to 6.3 million by 2020, and more than 200000 tons of power batteries will be decommissioned. There is an urgent practical demand for the cascade utilization and accurate dismantling and recovery of decommissioned batteries. It is also a powerful measure to promote the sustainable development of new energy automobile industry. To this end, the national key R & D plan "solid waste resources" has deployed the R & D task of "heterogeneous compatible utilization and intelligent disassembly technology of decommissioned power batteries," which has been publicly declared and strictly reviewed. The project led by Tianjin Lishen Battery Co., Ltd. was finally established.

On March 24, 2019, the project launch meeting and implementation plan will be held in Beijing. China agenda 21 Management Center, Tianjin Science and Technology Bureau, China Renewable Resources Industry technological Innovation Strategic Alliance and other departments and industry representatives, Li Huiquan researcher and other project implementation plan demonstration experts, As well as China Electric Power God Group Co., Ltd. Wang Zesheng deputy general manager and other project units representatives of a total of more than 50 people attended the meeting.

Representatives of the 21st Century Center of the professional organization of project management introduced the layout of special tasks and the establishment of projects. In the process of project implementation, specific requirements are put forward for strengthening standardized management, integrated implementation, goal and problem orientation, integrity construction, fund management and so on. The representative of Tianjin Science and Technology Bureau said that he would continue to pay attention to and provide good services for the implementation of the project, and hoped that the results of the project would play a role in promoting the construction of the power battery industry chain. Chairman Li Shilong of the Renewable Resources Alliance said that he will continue to play an alliance role to guide the renewable resources industry to actively build an industrial innovation chain and assist projects to complete research tasks according to quality and quantity. And do a good job of service for the transfer, transformation, popularization and application of the technical achievements of the project. Wang Zesheng, deputy general manager, said that he would strictly implement the responsibility of the legal person unit, give full play to the role of the project lead unit, and do a good job of supporting and ensuring the integration of the project organization and implementation.

Xu Shengming, the project leader, made a detailed report on the project implementation plan, schedule plan, organization and management, and the person in charge of each project reported in detail on the project implementation plan. The expert Group listened carefully to the report, considered the implementation programme materials, fully questioned and discussed the relevant content, unanimously agreed to adopt the demonstration, and put forward suggestions and opinions on the specific implementation of the project and the subject.

The project aims at the problems of wide variety, great performance difference, low disassembly efficiency and poor precision of material collection in large-scale decommissioned power batteries. It is proposed to carry out research on key technologies such as rapid classification of decommissioned batteries, heterogeneous compatible cascade utilization, multi-dimensional selection and intelligent reprinting, intelligent disassembly and material collection, as well as the ecological coupling model of the whole life cycle value chain of power batteries. It is expected to construct the commercial operation mode of reverse supply chain of power battery, and realize the profound utilization and fine recovery of decommissioned power battery, so as to promote the sustainable development of new energy industry in our country.

According to the report, "Recycling and Utilization of Power batteries for New Energy vehicles," at present, the number of decommissioned batteries is very small, and with the introduction of relevant national and local policies and measures, strengthen industry guidance and play the role of market mechanism. Automobile production enterprises began to implement the requirements of the extended producer responsibility system and build a recovery system. Other enterprises are also promoted by policy and economic factors to carry out recycling in each link, and the recovery and utilization system is speeding up.

SMM believes that in the future, we can establish a sound recycling management system, actively promote the cooperative development of pilot areas, fully implement the responsibility traceability management system, and speed up the layout of battery recycling service outlets, and so on. Promote the improvement of China's power battery recovery system.
