Electric vehicle (EV) recycling is experiencing a notable surge in momentum. The process entails the meticulous disassembly of retired EVs, encompassing the removal of electric and electronic components, as well as airbags. In a bid to enhance efficiency, German automaker BMW has introduced a unique electrical disassembly device designed to systematically dismantle the car, facilitating the extraction of valuable raw materials from the scrap. This initiative is integral to BMW's overarching 'Circular Concept,' a strategic approach geared towards fostering sustainability in EV production.
