BatteReverse – A next-generation automated, connected, and standardised process for increased safety, efficiency, and sustainability of Li-ion Battery reverse logistics

BatteReverse project will develop a more efficient and universal method for battery discharge and first diagnosis for a wide range of Li-ion battery types, safety packaging with a monitoring system reducing thermal runaway risk during transportation of batteries, automated dismantling and sorting of battery components based on a safe and more efficient human-robot collaboration, and a more precise and faster Remaining Useful Life assessment of battery modules for 2nd life applications based on acoustic testing and machine learning algorithms. On top of that, BatteReverse will develop a Battery Data Space with standardised labelling and battery passport functionalities to improve battery identification. The innovations will be integrated and demonstrated in an operational environment in two use-cases for end-of-first-life EV batteries – recycling and repurposing – mirrored with the digital twin simulation.
