Abstract This paper presents the results achieved for the reconditioning of some lithium-ion batteries that were considered inappropriate for usage in their applications. In order to evaluate the efficiency of the reconditioning procedure, one has calculated a reconditioning degree (g(r)), which indicates the percentage of the rechargeable battery recovered capacity versus its nominal capacity. This procedure shows promising results for structural sound intact batteries and one may see that after the reconditioning process, the recovered capacity of the lithium-ion batteries may reach up to 95% of its initial capacity stated in the technical specifications. The results obtained indicate that the recondition of lithium-ion is a procedure which may be introduced as an alternative way for recycling, this procedure allowing the reintroduction of these batteries to their originally intended use decreasing the amount of rechargeable lithium-ions batteries that end up to recycling, as well as decreasing the market demand and saving valuable metals used for their manufacture.
