The deliverable is the work performed under WP5 "Development and validation of technical solutions for components re-use, remanufacturing and recycling", and reports the main outcomes of Task 5.1 "Detailed engineering of processes and technologies for batteries re-use, remanufacturing and recycling". Task T5.1 focuses on the design of processes and technologies used to treat automotive end-of-life Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) dismounted from the vehicle thanks to the use of Smart Mobile Modules (SMMs) developed in WP4. In particular, T5.1 sets up the requirements for the testing in plant of the battery modules and cells and analyzes and selects the possible pathway of LIBs in terms of reuse, remanufacturing and recycling. For batteries having sufficiently high residual properties, a Decision Support System (DSS) has been developed to evaluate the best option for secondary applications and for new reconfigured battery pack according to the input variability (e.g. dimensional constraints, battery State of Health, etc.). Furthermore, Standard Operational Sheets (SOS) have been drafted to support the disassembly of the product and to analyze the possible automation of the tasks through Human-Robot Collaborative (HRC) technologies. On the opposite, process requirements, operating steps and target outputs are identified for irretrievably damaged batteries, analyzing the combination of mechanical pre-treatments and hydrometallurgical process to recover valuable secondary raw materials. The reported results of T5.1 have been obtained starting from the collection of data and research studies currently in use to derive industrially scalable solutions depending on different scenarios. Information has been validated by Consortium partners having a specific expertise on the topic and by preliminary experimental tests. The integration of the obtained results inside the CarE-Service ICT platform has been evaluated to derive the requirements for WP6 tasks.

Abstract
The deliverable is the work performed under WP5 "Development and validation of technical solutions for components re-use, remanufacturing and recycling", and reports the main outcomes of Task 5.1 "Detailed engineering of processes and technologies for batteries re-use, remanufacturing and recycling". Task T5.1 focuses on the design of processes and technologies used to treat automotive end-of-life Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) dismounted from the vehicle thanks to the use of Smart Mobile Modules (SMMs) developed in WP4. In particular, T5.1 sets up the requirements for the testing in plant of the battery modules and cells and analyzes and selects the possible pathway of LIBs in terms of reuse, remanufacturing and recycling. For batteries having sufficiently high residual properties, a Decision Support System (DSS) has been developed to evaluate the best option for secondary applications and for new reconfigured battery pack according to the input variability (e.g. dimensional constraints, battery State of Health, etc.). Furthermore, Standard Operational Sheets (SOS) have been drafted to support the disassembly of the product and to analyze the possible automation of the tasks through Human-Robot Collaborative (HRC) technologies. On the opposite, process requirements, operating steps and target outputs are identified for irretrievably damaged batteries, analyzing the combination of mechanical pre-treatments and hydrometallurgical process to recover valuable secondary raw materials. The reported results of T5.1 have been obtained starting from the collection of data and research studies currently in use to derive industrially scalable solutions depending on different scenarios.
