Abstract:
The following study addresses the possibilities for responsible management of end-of-life lithium-ion batteries from domestic consumption in Nigeria. As there are currently no recycling and final treatment capacities for such batteries installed in Nigeria, it explores options for setting-up such capacities, including technical aspects and investments needs.
The study was carried-out under the project E-waste Compensation as an international financing mechanism in Nigeria (ECoN) with the project partner Closing the Loop organizing environmentally friendly and suitable collection, transport and final management together with the partners Verde Impacto Nigeria, Hinckley Recycling Ltd., in Nigeria.
