This document will focus on the language used to describe batteries at the end of battery or vehicle life as batteries are transitioned to the recycler@ dismantler@ or other third party. This document also provides a compilation of current recycling technologies and flow sheets@ and their application to different battery chemistries at the end of battery life. At the time of document authorship@ the technical information cited is most applicable to Li-ion battery type rechargeable energy storage systems (RESS)@ but the language used is not to be limited by chemistry of the battery systems and is generally applicable to other RESS.
