Electrochemical Incineration of Wastes [PDF]
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1989 The novel technology of waste removal in space vehicles by electrochemical methods is presented to convert wastes into chemicals that can be eventually recycled. The important consideration for waste oxidation is to select a right kind of electrode (anode) material that should be stable under anodic conditions and also a poor electrocatalyst for oxygen

Innovative Approach to Recycle Lithium‐Ion Battery Electrolytes via Sequential Chemical Processes
Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.A chemical separation method is developed to recycle and purify nonaqueous electrolytes from spent lithium‐ion batteries. The new process consists of a sequence of precipitation in tandem with each distillation and solvent‐assisted vacuum extraction to obtain high‐quality electrolyte precursors.
