In a method for recycling all solid-state batteries, spent battery cells are dissolved in anhydrous ethanol. The resulting solution is separated into solids and supernatants which are separately processed to regenerate the solid electrolyte and the solid electrode materials. The supernatant is subjected to vacuum evaporation to precipitate an electrolyte powder, which is then annealed under flowing oxygen. The solid electrode material is regenerated by washing the solids with water, drying the washed solids, relithiating the washed solids, and annealing the relithiated solids. The resulting materials are suitable for use in fabrication of new all-solid state batteries.
