2020, over 1.7 million electric vehicles were on U.S. roads and experts expect
15 million EVs in the U.S by 2030. Eventually, millions of tons of lithium-ion
batteries that power those cars will reach their end of life. How can
businesses recycle those batteries profitably?</span></p>

explain the economic challenges of recycling and discuss possible solutions.
One of the best solutions is to retain a battery cathode’s structure. This can
cut costs by nearly one-third while using almost two-thirds less energy.</span></p>
