Use advice for data set
When utilizing this data set, ensure proper attention to the detailed steps outlined for the hydro-metallurgical recycling process of LFP batteries. Be mindful of potential variations in the quality, capacity, and composition of the waste batteries being processed. When modelling the environmental impacts, make sure to account for all the input and output flows related to each sub-process, and consistently apply allocation rules where necessary. The functional unit for this data is defined as the recycling of 1 kWh of LFP battery capacity, assuming the average weight of a single battery unit to be 0.81 kg. Adapt this data carefully to the specific context of the recycling process being analyzed.

General comment
Waste lithium iron phosphate batteries are disassembled and sorted after discharging, and lithium iron phosphate powder is obtained by crushing the pole piece, and then heat-treated, slurried, acid-impregnated, transformed, and alkalized and decontaminated, and then filtered to obtain lithium chloride purification solution as a regeneration product.

Technical purpose
The technical use of this data set is for the hydro-metallurgical recycling process of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries. It outlines the process of disassembly, sorting, crushing, heat treatment, slurring, acid leaching, transformation, alkalization, and purification steps to obtain lithium chloride solution. This recycling process can be used in battery manufacturing and recycling industries to recover valuable materials from waste LFP batteries and produce lithium chloride as a regenerated product, which can be used in various industrial applications including as a raw material for new batteries.
