Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed a new method for recycling lithium-ion batteries. The process involves disintegrating the batteries using high-speed jets of liquid nitrogen, separating the components, and reusing the materials to create new batteries. This innovation could help reduce electronic waste and promote sustainability.
