Abstract

Apparatus () for safe and effective shredding of batteries, including lithium-ion batteries, is disclosed. The system integrates a shredding subassembly (), an auger/screw conveyor subassembly (), a rotary screen subassembly (), and an optional solvent recovery/recirculation subassembly (). Valves/actuators () can be coordinated such that a nitrogen blanket or a vacuum is maintained within the shredding assembly and/or the other subassemblies (). Shredded battery materials are transported to the rotary screen subassembly () via the auger-screw conveyor assembly () before being washed and split into solid and liquid sub-components.
