摘要: Abstract The rapid growth of market share Electrical Vehicles (EVs) and their increasing amount electric electronic components have introduced difficult challenges for future recycling such vehicles. End Life (ELVs), together with Waste Electric Electronic Equipment (WEEE), are renowned as an important source secondary raw materials. In addition, a significant proportion the hidden value at End-of-Life (EoL) EVs is embedded in light fractions containing complex material mixtures, i.e. management that has been rarely considered scientific literature. purpose this paper to fill gap through use innovative disassembly approach identify profitability components. novel approach, based on utilisation robotic system, disassembles extracts Strategically Important Materials (SIMs) from EV components, thereby improving concentration these materials prior final refining processes. This presents (E&E) A case study also included demonstrate average 95% associated recovery could be achieved.
