This invention provides a method for recycling
lithium manganese iron phosphate waste. The recycling method includes the following steps: (1) mixing
lithium manganese iron phosphate waste with a first acid solution, introducing
sulfur dioxide and
oxygen, and performing oxidative leaching to obtain a leaching
slurry; (2) subjecting the leaching
slurry to
copper removal treatment to obtain leaching residue and leaching solution; (3) mixing the leaching residue from step (2) with a second acid solution, adjusting the pH value to perform a first
precipitation reaction to obtain
manganese iron phosphate; and subjecting the leaching solution from step (2) to
lithium extraction treatment to obtain purified lithium salt. The recycling method provided by this invention has a better oxidation effect, does not introduce a large amount of cationic impurities, can realize the full-component
recovery of lithium manganese iron
phosphate battery
cathode materials, and can obtain battery-grade purified lithium salt materials and the precursor manganese iron
phosphate products required for battery-grade lithium manganese iron
phosphate cathode materials; and the process cost is low, which improves the added value of the products and better meets the actual production needs.
