Abstract
A method of recycling a Lithium-ion battery includes removing a plurality cells from a container of the battery without dismantling the cells, removing an electrolyte from the cells, re-lithiating the cells using lithium as a source of re-lithiation, and packaging the re-lithiated cells in a new container to form a new battery.
