To conduct the operations, destructive disassembly has been a prevailing practice. The disassembly phase of the battery pack includes cutting cable ties, cutting cooling pipes, and cutting bonded battery modules and the battery bottom cover for separation .
To address this issue, Hellmuth et al. introduced a method for the automated assessment of EV LIB disassembly. The method comprises two evaluation categories, where the first pertains to the feasibility of automating disassembly operations, and the second focuses on determining the necessity of automation.
The cutting processes are primarily focused on the dismantling of metal and metal-plastic components of battery packs. Furthermore, in the ablative processes, the ablation of active material of the battery electrode foil using ns-pulsed lasers is investigated.
The average lifespan of LIBs is approximately 8–10 years . A LIB will be considered to reach the end of its service life once the battery performance, based on the state of charge (SOC), the state of health (SOH), and/or the state of function (SOF), reflects an irreversible degradation compared to its design specification or ideal status .
