Environmental and Preliminary Economic Assessment of Integrated Resource Recovery from Spent Fluid Catalytic Cracking Catalysts

Abstract This study evaluates an integrated resource-recovery route for spent fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalysts, consisting of alkaline roasting, water leaching, adsorption/desorption, precipitation recovery, and leaching-residue valorization. Using the treatment of 1 t of...

Research progress on green recycling technologies for lithium-ion batteries based on molten salt methods

The rapid increase in spent lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) has created an urgent demand for recycling technologies that can achieve efficient resource recovery, material regeneration, and reduced environmental impacts. Molten salt methods have attracted increasing attention because...
