To conduct the operations, destructive disassembly has been a prevailing practice. The disassembly phase of the battery pack includes cutting cable ties, cutting cooling pipes, and cutting bonded battery modules and the battery bottom cover for separation .
The first step in handling retired battery packs involves a crucial process known as “disassembly”. While there are rare cases where old batteries can be repurposed as complete units without disassembly, many retired battery packs require a standard procedure of disassembling and reorganizing their components.
In the burgeoning new energy automobile industry, repurposing retired power batteries stands out as a sustainable solution to environmental and energy challenges. This paper comprehensively examines crucial technologies involved in optimizing the reuse of batteries, spanning from disassembly techniques to safety management systems.
For efficient disassembly, it is essential to separate battery cells from other components while maintaining the quality of recovered raw materials. However, impractical due to product variations and small volumes. Standardization in EV battery ]. manufacturing cell capable of continuous disassembly operations. This is in contrast to ].
Concerning areas of application, repurposed power batteries from EVs exhibit promising potential for deployment in stationary energy storage and low-speed electric transport systems. Currently, echelon utilization is advancing through a stage of demonstrative applications, with several pioneering cases emerging in China.
Xu et al.110suggested a clustering method for retired battery reorganization using traversal optimization. This method, outperforming both the k-means algorithm and the affine propagation method for larger samples, prioritizes the formation clusters with significant inter-cluster differences and minimal intra-cluster variations.
