In the coming years, the demand for safe electrical energy storage devices with high energy density will increase drastically due to the electrification of the transportation sector and the need for stationary storage for renewable energies. Advanced battery concepts like all-solid-state batteries (ASBs) are considered one of the most promising candidates for future energy storage technologies. They offer several advantages over conventional Lithium-Ion Batteries (LIBs), especially with regard to stability, safety, and energy density. Hardly any recycling studies have been conducted, yet, but such examinations will play an important role when considering raw materials supply, sustainability of battery systems, CO2 footprint, and general strive towards a circular economy. Although different methods for recycling LIBs are already available, the transferability to ASBs is not straightforward due to differences in used materials and fabrication technologies, even if the chemistry does not change (e.g., Li-intercalation cathodes). Challenges in terms of the ceramic nature of the cell components and thus the necessity for specific recycling strategies are investigated here for the first time. As a major result, a recycling route based on inert shredding, a subsequent thermal treatment, and a sorting step is suggested, and transferring the extracted black mass to a dedicated hydrometallurgical recycling process is proposed. The hydrometallurgical approach is split into two scenarios differing in terms of solubility of the ASB-battery components. Hence, developing a full recycling concept is reached by this study, which will be experimentally examined in future research.

Abstract Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), which are high-energy-density and low-safety-risk secondary batteries, are underpinned to the rise in electrochemical energy storage devices that satisfy the urgent demands of the global energy storage market. With the aim of achieving high energy density and fast-charging performance, the exploitation of simple and low-cost approaches for the production of high capacity, high density, high mass loading, and kinetically ion-accessible electrodes that maximize charge storage and transport in LIBs, is a critical need. Toward the construction of high-performance electrodes, carbons are promisingly used in the enhanced roles of active materials, electrochemical reaction frameworks for high-capacity noncarbons, and lightweight current collectors. Here, we review recent advances in the carbon engineering of electrodes for excellent electrochemical performance and structural stability, which is enabled by assembled carbon architectures that guarantee sufficient charge delivery and volume fluctuation buffering inside the electrode during cycling. Some specific feasible assembly methods, synergism between structural design components of carbon assemblies, and electrochemical performance enhancement are highlighted. The precise design of carbon cages by the assembly of graphene units is potentially useful for the controlled preparation of high-capacity carbon-caged noncarbon anodes with volumetric capacities over 2100 mAh cm−3. Finally, insights are given on the prospects and challenges for designing carbon architectures for practical LIBs that simultaneously provide high energy densities (both gravimetric and volumetric) and high rate performance.

As a high-efficiency energy storage and conversion device, lithium-ion batteries have high energy density, and have received widespread attention due to their good cycle performance and high reliability. However, currently commercial lithium batteries usually use organic solutions containing various lithium salts as liquid electrolytes. In practical applications, liquid electrolytes have many shortcomings and shortcomings, such as poor chemical stability, flammability, and explosion. Therefore, the liquid electrolyte has a great safety hazard. The use of solid electrolyte ensures the safety of lithium-ion batteries, and has the advantages of high energy density, good cycle performance, long life, and wide electrochemical window, making the battery safer and more durable, with higher energy density and simple battery Structural design. Solid electrolytes mainly include inorganic solid electrolytes and organic polymer solid electrolytes. Although both inorganic solid electrolytes and polymer solid electrolytes have their own advantages, as far as the existing research work is concerned, whether it is an inorganic system or a polymer system, a single-system solid electrolyte can never achieve the full performance of an ideal solid electrolyte. The composite solid electrolyte composed of active or passive inorganic filler and polymer matrix is considered as a promising candidate electrolyte for all-solid-state lithium batteries. Among many polymer systems, PEO-based is considered to be the most ideal polymer substrate. In this review article, we first introduced the structure, properties, and preparation methods of PEO-based polymer electrolytes. Furthermore, the researches related to the modification of PEO-based polymer solid electrolytes in recent years are summarized. The contribution of polymer structural modification and the introduction of additives to the ionic conductivity, electrochemical stability and mechanical properties of PEO-based solid electrolytes is described. Examples of different composite solid electrolyte design concepts were extensively discussed, such as inorganic inert nanoparticles/PEO, oxide/PEO, and sulfide/PEO. Finally, the future development direction of composite solid electrolytes was prospected.
