The invention relates to the technical field of
lithium dihydrogen
phosphate preparation, and discloses a method for preparing
lithium dihydrogen
phosphate by recycling
lithium batteries, which comprises the following steps: S1, crushing waste batteries; s2, screening and separating components with different particle sizes to obtain battery
powder; s3, leaching is conducted, and a lithium-containing leaching solution is obtained; s4, adding an extracting agent to obtain high-purity lithium-containing filtrate; s5, obtaining
phosphate for depositing lithium; s6, obtaining a
lithium phosphate precipitate; and S7, obtaining a lithium dihydrogen phosphate solution. A small part of the lithium-containing
leachate is treated with alkali liquor,
metal impurities are removed, phosphate used for precipitating lithium is generated through
phosphorus and lithium of the
leachate, the prepared phosphate is mixed with the purified lithium-containing filtrate,
lithium phosphate is directly precipitated, dependence on external raw materials and the production cost are reduced, and the method is suitable for industrial production. And lithium in the whole process is synchronously recovered through
shunting treatment, so that lithium loss caused by
shunting is avoided, and the overall
recovery rate of lithium is improved.
