Waste reduction and Recycling Technology

Description of center’s mission and objectives

CIRC-eV is the first European laboratory dedicated to the Circular Factory concept to help the manufacturing industry recover and reuse components and materials from hybrid and electric vehicles and promote new circular economy models for sustainable mobility. It integrates disassembly, testing, reassembly and recycling of materials within the same structure, to design and enable sustainable circular economy solutions for the e-mobility sector.

Description of center’s facilities and equipment

The CIRC-eV pilot factory will support multidisciplinary research and innovation activities to identify the best strategy for the management of post-use cells according to residual performance by developing methods and technological solutions with high potential for technology transfer to industry, able to demonstrate the feasibility and financial, environmental and social impact of a new circular business model for sustainable mobility. In addition, several machines are available for recycling of different products as Lithium-ion batteries and composites, as different stages shredding machines, High-Voltage Fragmentation, granulometry analysis, Hyper-Spectral Imaging and semi-automatic cutting of battery case.

The mechanical processes area performs the operations that regenerate second-life modules through the reuse of cells or recycle composites and batteries for material recovery. All the mechanical processes of disassembly, reassembly, cutting, grinding and separation are integrated in this area. The battery testing area analyses residual properties and second-life applications in automotive modules or stationary applications. The Data analysis and modelling area enables the flow of information through advanced data collection, modelling and simulation techniques.
