Summary

The global Li-ion Battery Recycling market is projected to grow from US$ 870 million in 2024 to US$ 3266 million by 2031, at a CAGR of 21.1% (2025-2031), driven by critical product segments and diverse end‑use applications.
Li-ion Battery recycling is a recycling activity that aims to reduce the number of batteries being disposed as municipal solid waste. Batteries contain a number of heavy metals and toxic chemicals and disposing of them by the same process as regular trash has raised concerns over soil contamination and water pollution.
From a downstream perspective, Automotive accounted for % of 2024 revenue, surging to US$ million by 2031 (CAGR: % from 2025–2031).
Li-ion Battery Recycling leading manufacturers including Umicore, GEM, Brunp Recycling, SungEel HiTech, Taisen Recycling, Batrec, Retriev Technologies, Tes-Amm(Recupyl), Duesenfeld, 4R Energy, etc., dominate supply; the top five capture approximately % of global revenue, with Umicore leading 2024 sales at US$ million.
Regional Outlook:
North America rose from US$ million in 2024 to a forecast US$ million by 2031 (CAGR %).
Asia‑Pacific will expand from US$ million to US$ million (CAGR  %), led by China (US$ million in 2024, % share rising to % by 2031), Japan (CAGR %), South Korea (CAGR %), and Southeast Asia (CAGR %).
Europe is set to grow from US$ million to US$ million (CAGR %), with Germany projected to hit US$ million by 2031 (CAGR %).
