Symposium Scope / Topics
- Closed-Loop Battery Recycling & Upcycling: Advanced hydrometallurgical, pyrometallurgical, direct recycling, and re-manufacturing technologies for spent lithium-ion, solid-state, and beyond-lithium batteries (e.g., Zn, Na).
- AI & Data-Driven Recycling Technologies: Machine learning for automated battery sorting, state-of-health (SoH) diagnostics, degradation prediction, and process optimization in black mass recovery.
- Interfacial Engineering for Circularity: Interphase design (SEI/CEI) tailored for extended cycle life, safe second-life application, and facile material separation during recycling.
- AI-Guided Sustainable Materials Discovery: High-throughput screening, inverse design, and computational modeling for low-cost, eco-friendly, and easy-to-recycle electrode/electrolyte materials.
- Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) & Circular Economy: Techno-economic evaluation, carbon footprint reduction, critical material supply chain resilience, and policy-enabling frameworks for battery sustainability.
