What is a battery shredder?
Battery shredders and shredding systems are specifically designed for your application, whether you recycle electric car batteries, lithium ion batteries, absolyte batteries, alkaline batteries or lead acid batteries, just to name a few Battery shredders utilize a low speed, high torque, twin shaft shredder as the primary shredder prior to further processing.
Lithium-ion batteries, as well as other batteries, contain cobalt, nickel, copper and various precious metals that, if separated, can be recycled and reused
Battery shredders incorporate a constant water bath to prevent fires, along with a chemical-based secondary fire suppression program. Most batteries need to be discharged before they can be recycled The physical process usually includes pretreatment and direct recovery of electrode material.
Principle ot lithium battery shredder
Used lithium batteries are poured into the feed bin of the shredder. At this point, the pushing device squeezes the material downward to speed up the crushing speed of the material and improve the crushing efficiency. The lithium battery is crushed into small pieces by the main crusher and output through the discharge hopper. As lithium batteries are flammable and explosive items, in order to ensure the safe operation of the whole process, it is necessary to discharge the lithium batteries before shredding.
