Use advice for data set
When using this dataset for Life Cycle Assessment, ensure to account for the specific hydrometallurgical processes of dismantling, crushing, sieving, acid leaching, iron removal, transformation purification, and hydrochloric acid distillation recovery. The data is applicable solely for the recycling of completely discharged LFP batteries. The Functional Unit (FU) for data comparison purposes is the nominal capacity of a 1 kWh battery pack. Special attention should be paid to the methodological consistency when integrating this process into a broader LCA study, ensuring considerations such as system boundaries, allocation rules, and impact assessment methods are in alignment with the dataset.

General comment
The completely discharged EoL LFP batteries were dismantled, crushed, and sieved to obtain LFP powder. After that, the powder was acid leached, iron removal, transformation de-hybridization, and hydrochloric acid distillation recovery, etc., to get the lithium chloride purification solution.

Technical purpose
This industrial process is used for the recovery of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) from end-of-life (EoL) LFP batteries through hydrometallurgical methods. The recovered lithium chloride purification solution is suitable for reuse in the manufacturing of new lithium-based batteries, particularly LFP batteries, or possibly in other industries requiring high-grade lithium compounds.
