During the first webinar four factsheets on lithium-ion batteries identifying synergies between e-waste, electric mobility and energy will be presented. The factsheets cover the four segments of the end-of-life management of electric vehicle batteries: initial battery design, re-purposing in energy storage systems, refurbishing, and recycling. This workshop will be the opportunity to launch the papers […]
Practitioners from Kenya and Brazil will talk about what kind of e-waste they receive, how they treat it and where the outputs of their process go. The webinar is the first in a series of Deep Dives into selected waste management technologies, organized by UN-Habitat’s Waste Wise Citiesinitiative, African Clean Cities Platform and the Wuppertal […]
