Microwave-assisted technologies for recycling and regeneration of spent lithium-ion batteries
Tiefeng Liu
The rapid growth of lithium-ion battery (LIB) deployment in electric vehicles and energy storage systems has led to an increasing volume of end-of-life batteries, highlighting the urgent need for efficient and sustainable recycling technologies. Microwave thermal treatment has recently emerged as a promising approach for LIB recycling due to its unique internal heating mechanism, rapid heating rate, and high energy efficiency. This review systematically summarizes the recent progress of microwav
