Project 4-2

In order to sustainably close material cycles in battery production, efficient processes for the resynthesis of active materials with specifically adjustable properties are absolutely necessary.  Within this framework, the aim of this project is to synthesize active materials from secondary raw materials using established technologies and to structure them by an application-oriented setting regarding the formulation and process parameters (e.g. temperature, precursor concentration). In addition, the particles are to be calcined and refined via downstream processes and applied in test cells.

Specific objectives:

• Efficient resynthesis of active materials with different properties depending on the used precursors
• Establishment of application-oriented conditioning
• Identification of requirements and design rules for recycling processes

Expected outcome:

• Establishment of an efficient resynthesis route for targeted particle structuring
• Set up of process support analytics for evaluating the active materials
• Production of active materials from secondary raw materials for the further investigations in subsequent projects
