Use advice for data set
Users of this data set should ensure that the data is applied specifically to scenarios involving the recycling and recovery of nickel, cobalt, and manganese from lithium battery casings. It is important to account for the use phase behavior of recycled materials and to apply the data accordingly when modeling life cycle assessments. The emergy values given in the provided data must be handled with care, incorporating Liu and Yang's 'Energy Analysis Theory and Practice' for methodology reference. This data set is based on the functional unit of 1 kWh energy equivalence, with the calculation basis being GEB2016 (12.0 × 1024 sej). Users should ensure that their methodologies align with this basis when interpreting and integrating the data.

General comment
Utilizing the recycled waste sagger, nickel, cobalt and manganese precursors are extracted, as well as lithium carbonate and other products, and by-products such as alum and potassium sulphate are produced through the processes of physical separation, reductive leaching, tandem separation, evaporation and crystallization, and purification.
