Development of a comprehensive battery recycling strategy - RECOBATs

The company FCC Medio Ambiente is one of the members of the RECOBATs project consortium ‘Development of a comprehensive battery recycling strategy’.

The main objective of RECOBATs is to obtain a comprehensive and versatile strategy for the second life and recycling of electromobility LIBs at the end of their useful life, covering research into technologies at different stages of the process, from logistics and safety in storage and transport, deactivation, automatic disassembly, cell status diagnosis, as well as regeneration into new batteries, direct recycling through selective separation for the recovery of cathodes, anodes, Cu and Al, and indirect recycling from black mass for the recovery of strategic materials using biohydrometallurgy, supercritical fluids and purification technologies for the efficient recovery of metals and graphite in sufficient purity to give them a second life.
In addition, digital technologies will be integrated to model and simulate the different stages studied, as well as to model and visualise the overall process at full scale using digital twins and artificial intelligence.

Finally, the recovered materials will be validated in new cells, 3D manufacturing will be carried out using the recovered Al and Cu, and graphite will be used in construction materials.

To meet this challenge, RECOBATs has a multidisciplinary consortium made up of seven companies and four research organisations:

Consortium of companies	Consortium of Oragnisations
ECOINTEGRAL	CETIM
APRIA	AIMEN
BEECYCLE	CENIM
FCC ÁMBITO	CIIAE
DGH
ENVIROBAT
RECYCLIA

The RECOBATs project has been subsidised by the Centre for Technological Development and Innovation (CDTI), supported by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, in the 2024 call for proposals for the award of grants for ‘Science and Innovation Missions - Transmissions’ within the framework of the Transfer and Collaboration Programme of the State Plan for Scientific, Technical and Innovation Research 2024-2027.
