Although some new energy vehicle companies have already deployed the power battery recycling market, due to lack of technology and experience, many companies choose to hand over to a third-party professional recycling power battery provider. The blue ocean of battery recycling has taken shape, and only awaits the maturity of recycling technology to complete the ice breaking.

　　From April 17th to 18th, the 7th Automotive Power Battery Recycling and Recycling and Secondary Battery Recycling and Recycling Technology Seminar was held in Beijing.

　　The key crux of power battery recycling

　　Huang Jianzhong, former deputy inspector of the Department of Energy Conservation and Comprehensive Utilization of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and Secretary-General of the China Electronics Energy Conservation Technology Association, said: The current power battery recycling industry is entering an important stage of research. Shown as the following three key points.

　　First, regardless of the design and production of power batteries, or the recycling, disposal, and comprehensive utilization of waste power batteries, they are still in a stage of continuous improvement of policies and regulations that support and standardize development.

　　Second, how do battery manufacturers adopt standardized, versatile and easy-to-disassemble product structure designs to strengthen the life cycle management of power batteries.

　　Thirdly, how to establish various systems for extending the responsibility of producers with automobile manufacturers as the main body, play the role of market mechanisms, and establish power battery recycling channels.

　　These three key points sharply pointed out the main crux of my country's recycling and disposal of used batteries.

　　In terms of the power battery recycling policy system, at present, the design and production of power batteries, the recycling, disposal, and comprehensive utilization of waste power batteries in my country are still in a stage of continuous improvement of policies and regulations that support and standardize development. At the previous "two sessions", Chen Hong, a representative of the National People's Congress and chairman of SAIC Motor, stated that my country's power battery recycling policy system is not sound enough at this stage. It is difficult for OEMs to manage the entire life cycle of the power batteries of all sold vehicles from the sale of new vehicles to the final recycling. Therefore, he suggested, "Relevant departments should study and introduce new energy vehicle recycling qualifications, and gradually eliminate enterprises with backward technology and environmental protection standards."

　　In terms of power battery life cycle management and producer responsibility extension, Wang Hongmei of the Chinese Academy of Environmental Sciences has more experience. She once presided over the policy formulation work of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment on "Waste Battery Pollution Prevention Technology". She pointed out that the management of waste lead-acid batteries is currently mainly concentrated on industrial hazardous waste, and the management of hazardous waste for civilian products is still relatively weak. Therefore, she suggested: “In general, we must establish a unified coding standard at the national level, establish a traceability system for the entire life cycle, monitor the entire flow, and finally create a closed loop between production, recycling and recycling, and truly extend the responsibility of pollution to consumers. Establish a new mode of civilian hazardous waste management."
