This is a first plan for the review article I am going to try and write in individual sections. A bit like a serial novel, like a Dickens novel such as Pickwick Papers, or Alexander McCall-Smith's 44 Scotland Street... but about chemical and thermal lithium-ion battery recycling processes!

\title{A review of chemical and thermal processes used in the recycling of lithium ion battery materials}
\begin{document}
\begin{abstract}
This a review attempts to comprehensively present the chemical and thermal techniques that have been, or are being, adopted for materials recovery from waste lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The work will firstly overview the principle material classes, and typical specifics of the elements, that make up a LIB: lithium ion electrolyte and carbonate ester solvent; transition metal lithium oxides in the electrodes (often the most valuable elements); metals from current collector foils (Al \& Cu), connectors and packaging; carbon from conductive agents in both electrodes, and intercalatable graphite in the anode; and finally polymers from the separator, packaging, gasket, and binding agent in the electrodes. This is followed by an outline of the specific thermal processes, then the chemical processes.
