Ny gruppe under DBS Groups: Genanvendelse af Litium batterier

EU anslår, at der på tværs af Europa indsamles blot omkring 10% af de litium batterier, som indføres til eller produceres i EU. I Danmark estimeres det, at omkring 50% at de litium batterier, som sælges i produkter, ikke indsamles på trods af klare regler om producentens eller sælgers ansvar for korrekt bortskaffelse. Den manglende genindvindelse skal desuden ses i sammenhæng med, at der i dag finder et betydelig spild af fuldt ud funktionelle litium batteri celler sted.

Ny gruppe under DBS Groups har netop fokus på genanvendelsesproblematikken af litium batterier. Gruppen hedder meget sigende ‘Genanvendelse af Litium batterier’ og vil blive ledet af Kristian Oluf Sylvester-Hvid, DTI. Læs mere om den nye gruppe her, hvor det også er muligt at tilmelde sig gruppen.

Erik Schaltz

Erik Schaltz received the MSc and PhD degrees in electrical engineering from the Department of Energy, Aalborg University, Aalborg, Denmark, in 2005 and 2010, respectively. From 2009 to 2012, he has been an Assistant Professor and since 2012, he has been an Associate Professor. Both positions also at the Department of Energy, Aalborg University. At the Department, he is the leader of the research group in E-mobility and Drives and the vice leader of the Batteries research group. He is a guest and associate editor in several journals related to batteries and e-mobility and he is also a board member of the Danish Battery Society. His research interests include the usage of power electronics, electric machines, fuel cells, batteries, ultracapacitors, etc. as power train in various applications like electric vehicles, industrial machinery, and heavy-duty systems. In addition, he is also focused on battery state-estimation, management (electric and thermal), and modelling (electric, thermal, and lifetime) of battery cells and packs.
