System for extracting electrode material from batteries

A system (100) for extracting electrode material from one or more batteries, the system comprising:

• a freezing unit (102) configured to receive a feedstock of the one or more batteries, wherein the feedstock is cooled at a pre-defined temperature in the freezing unit;
• a shredding unit (104) configured to receive the cooled feedstock from the freezing unit (102), wherein the shredding unit (104) is configured to shred the feedstock in powder form;
• a cyclone separator (110) configured with the shredding unit (104), and configured to receive air bone electrode material particles generated as a result of shredding the one or more batteries;
• a separating unit (106) configured with the shredding unit (104), and configured to separate the electrode material particles;
• a cleaning unit (108) operatively configured with the separating unit (106) and the cyclone separator (110), wherein the cleaning unit (108) configured to receive the powdered electrode particles from the shredding unit (104), and powdered electrode materials from a first output of the cyclone separator (110), wherein the powdered electrode material is treated with a fluid in the cleaning unit (108);
• and wherein the electrode material is extracted as an output from the cleaning unit.
