Overview
Scope of the Report
The global Lithium Battery Recycled Black Powder market size is predicted to grow from US$ 2,303 million in 2025 to US$ 5,488 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.3% from 2026 to 2032.
Lithium Battery Recycled Black Powder refers to the fine mixed powder of cathode and anode active materials generated after spent lithium batteries and battery manufacturing scrap undergo discharge, dismantling, crushing, thermal treatment, and multi-stage physical separation. It is produced after removing casings, separators, copper and aluminum current collectors, and can concentrate recoverable components such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese, iron phosphate active materials, and graphite. In 2025, the industry’s capacity utilization rate reached 73%, and the average gross margin was around 50%. In 2025, production was about 1.08 million tons and the average price was USD 2180 per ton. The upstream segment mainly consists of specialized battery recycling equipment manufacturers, with representative suppliers including STEINERT, Batrium, Zhejiang Tianchang Intelligent Manufacturing Co., Ltd., and Brunp Recycling Equipment Division. The midstream segment focuses on black powder preparation, composition adjustment, and deep impurity removal, covering core processes such as fine crushing, pyrolysis, screening, magnetic separation, and metal-element enrichment. Downstream, the product is mainly used in regenerated cathode material manufacturing for power batteries and energy storage batteries, with typical customers including CATL, BYD, LG Energy Solution, and Tesla.
With the rapid growth of new energy vehicles, energy storage systems, and portable electronic devices, lithium battery recycled black powder, as a key intermediate rich in strategic metals such as nickel, cobalt, and lithium, is experiencing steadily increasing market demand. Its high metal recovery rate and excellent material performance provide significant value in reducing raw material costs, securing supply, and promoting the circular economy. Over the next five to ten years, policy support, technological advances, and environmental requirements are expected to further unlock industry potential, positioning lithium battery recycled black powder as a core component in the global battery recycling ecosystem, driving supply chain optimization and generating substantial economic and sustainable development benefits.
