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.

Areal Capacity

Solid-state batteries (SSBs) with lithium metal anodes offer higher specific energy than conventional lithium-ion batteries, but they must utilize areal capacities >3 mAh cm-2 and cycle at current densities >3 mA cm-2 to achieve commercial viability. Substantial research effort has focused on increasing rate capabilities of SSBs by mitigating detrimental processes such as lithium filament penetration. Less attention has been paid to understanding how areal capacity impacts plating/stripping behavior, despite the importance of areal capacity for achieving high specific energy. Here, we investigate and quantify the relationships among areal capacity, current density, and plating/stripping stability using both symmetric and full-cell configurations with a sulfide solid-state electrolyte (Li6PS5Cl). We show that unstable deposition and short circuiting readily occur at rates much lower than the measured critical current density when a sufficient areal capacity is passed. A systematic study of continuous plating under different electrochemical conditions reveals average “threshold capacity” values at different current densities, beyond which short circuiting occurs. Cycling cells below this threshold capacity significantly enhances cell lifetime, enabling stable symmetric cell cycling at 2.2 mA cm-2 without short circuiting. Finally, we show that full cells also exhibit threshold capacity behavior, but they tend to short circuit at lower current densities and areal capacities. Our results quantify the effects of transferred capacity and demonstrate the importance of using realistic areal capacities in experiments to develop viable solid-state batteries.

An all-solid-state lithium battery using inorganic solid electrolytes requires safety assurance and improved energy density, both of which are issues in large-scale applications of lithium-ion batteries. Utilization of high-capacity lithium-excess electrode materials is effective for the further increase in energy density. However, they have never been applied to all-solid-state batteries. Operational difficulty of all-solid-state batteries using them generally lies in the construction of the electrode-electrolyte interface. By the amorphization of Li2RuO3 as a lithium-excess model material with Li2SO4, here, we have first demonstrated a reversible oxygen redox reaction in all-solid-state batteries. Amorphous nature of the Li2RuO3-Li2SO4 matrix enables inclusion of active material with high conductivity and ductility for achieving favorable interfaces with charge transfer capabilities, leading to the stable operation of all-solid-state batteries.

Abstract The demand for high-capacity lithium-ion batteries (LIB) in electric vehicles has increased. In this study, optimization to maximize the specific energy density of a cell is conducted using the LIB electrochemical model and sequential approximate optimization (SAO). First, the design of experiments is performed to analyze the sensitivity of design factors important to the specific energy density, such as electrode and separator thicknesses, porosity, and particle size. Then, the design variables of the cell are optimized for maximum specific energy density using the progressive quadratic response surface method (PQRSM), which is one of the SAO techniques. As a result of optimization, the thickness ratio of the electrode was optimized and the porosity was reduced to keep the specific energy density high, while still maintaining the specific power density performance. This led to an increase in the specific energy density of 56.8% and a reduction in the polarization phenomenon of 11.5%. The specific energy density effectively improved through minimum computation despite the nonlinearity of the electrochemical model in PQRSM optimization.
