Nanotechnology for Battery Recycling, Remanufacturing, and Reusing explores how nanotechnology si currently being used in battery recycling, remanufacturing and reusing technologies, in order to make these technologies economically and environmentally feasible.

This book also shows how nanotechnology can be used to enhance and improve battery recycling, remanufacturing, and reusing technologies. It has four parts. In Part 1, the fundamentals of battery recycling, remanufacturing and reusing technologies, and the role of nanotechnology are discussed. In Part 2, the focus is on the separation, regeneration, and reusing nanomaterials from battery waste. In Part 3, the emphasis is on nano-enabled approaches for battery recycling and the industry experience on this subject. Part 4 looks at the nano-enabled approach for battery remanufacturing and reusing, as well as the industry experience in this topic. Overall, this book will help researchers and engineers to better understand the role of nanotechnology in the field of battery recycling, remanufacturing, and reusing.

This is an important reference source for materials scientists and engineers who would like to learn more about how nanotechnology is being used to create new battery recycling processes.
