About
Dr. Cansu Akdeniz is a leading researcher at the intersection of sustainable manufacturing and robotics, whose work is critical to advancing the circular economy for electric vehicle batteries. Her primary research areas include tele-robotics, human-robot collaboration, and the automation of disassembly processes for end-of-life products. Dr. Akdeniz’s most notable contribution is her pioneering work on the tele-robotic disassembly of lithium-ion batteries, a field she has helped define. Her highly cited 2023 paper, "Towards reuse and recycling of lithium-ion batteries: tele-robotics for disassembly of electric vehicle batteries," has already garnered 40 citations, underscoring its immediate impact. In this work, she directly addresses the formidable challenges of battery recycling—namely, the lack of standardization, complex design, and safety hazards posed by uncertain end-of-life conditions. By demonstrating how telerobotics can overcome these barriers, she has provided a viable pathway for the safe, efficient recovery of high-value materials. Dr. Akdeniz’s research is not only technically innovative but also profoundly practical, offering a scalable solution to one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. Her work is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of sustainable robotics and green manufacturing.
