The increase in the number of electric vehicles in the coming years is a challenge in the management of used batteries. At the same time, recycling used batteries is an opportunity for both waste processors and battery manufacturers. Used Li-ion batteries are a secondary source of very valuable materials. Recycling results in a number of deficient and expensive elements such as cobalt and lithium. Automating battery disassembly reduces costs leading to economically viable recycling and influences the efficiency of the separation processes and the purity of the resulting elements. The utilization of useful elements produces technological, economic and ecological effects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
