EV Battery Remanufacturing Process
Involves restoring used or degraded battery packs to a like-new condition, extending their lifespan and reducing waste.
1. Preliminary Inspection
Initial Testing: Batteries are tested to assess capacity, voltage, and overall health. Some packs may still have useful life left for second-life applications.
2. Disassembly
Pack Disassembly: The battery pack is carefully opened to access individual modules or cells. Component Separation: Modules, wiring, and cooling systems are separated for inspection. Damaged or worn-out parts are identified for replacement.
3. Cell & Module Testing
Capacity Testing: Individual cells and modules are tested for energy storage capacity and performance.
Balancing & Sorting: Good cells are balanced to ensure even charge distribution, while defective ones are replaced or repurposed for less demanding applications.
4. Refurbishment & Repair
Module Replacement: If a module is significantly degraded, it is replaced with a refurbished or new one. Cooling System Maintenance: Thermal management components are cleaned, repaired, or replaced. Software & BMS Updates: The Battery Management System (BMS) is reprogrammed or updated to optimize performance.
5. Reassembly & Testing
Pack Reassembly: After refurbishment, the battery pack is reassembled with tested components. Final Quality Testing: The entire pack undergoes rigorous performance testing to ensure it meets OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) standards.
6. Reinstallation or Second-Life Use
Reinstallation in EVs: If the battery meets required performance standards, it is returned to the vehicle or sold as a remanufactured pack.
Second-Life Applications: Batteries with reduced capacity may be repurposed for energy storage systems (e.g., solar power storage).
ATC Are EV Battery Recycling Experts
When EV batteries reach the end of their useful life or become unsafe for continued use, ATC can recycle them.
- EV battery recycling is highly specialized due to the complexity, chemistry, and potential hazards of EV batteries.
- ATC developed battery recycling equipment can be quickly deployed.
- Black mass purity of 97%.
