Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, devices, and methods for storing and transporting used battery cells. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems provide a battery cell storage and transportation system that includes a plurality of battery cell storage and transportation trays. The battery cell storage and transportation trays can be stacked and can encapsulate individual battery cells in a vertical orientation within dedicated cavities. Moreover, the battery cell storage and transportation trays can include isolation cavities for terminals of the battery cells. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems provide for a series of battery cell storage and transportation trays to be stacked and placed onto a pallet base for storage and/or transportation.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for collecting batteries and other devices for disposal or recycling and suppressing fires during storage and/or transportation. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems provide a battery collection and fire suppression system comprising a battery collection bin with side vents in one or more sides of the battery collection bin. Also, in some embodiments, disclosed systems may include modular inserts configured to be inserted into the battery collection bin. Further, in some implementations, the disclosed systems may include fire suppressant configured to be inserted into the battery collection bin about the modular inserts that automatically is deployed during a thermal event.
