Problems solved by technology

[0003] Although the commercialization technology of lithium-ion secondary batteries has become more and more mature for decades, the research and development of the corresponding waste lithium-ion secondary battery recycling technology appears to be relatively lagging behind, especially the lithium-ion batteries obtained after a series of complex chemical treatments. The product recovery rate is low, the purity is not high, and most of them are in the laboratory research stage, and the technical convenience needs to be optimized and perfected

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for separating and recovering lithium from a waste lithium ion battery. The method comprises the following steps: dismounting after discharging the waste lithium ion battery, and removing a battery case; crashing a battery cell; leaching and filtering the crushed battery cell with inorganic acid and oxidant to obtain a filter liquor; regulating the pH of the filter liquor to be more than or equal to 8, then filtering to remove impurities and sediment to obtain a recovery liquor containing lithium ions; adsorbing the lithium ions in the recovery liquor through resin; and desorbing the resin to obtain the separated and recovered lithium salt. The recovery method provided by the invention is simple and efficient, has high purity of lithium and brings no pollution.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to a method for recovering metals from waste batteries, in particular to a method for recovering lithium ions in waste lithium ion batteries. 【Background technique】 [0002] Lithium-ion battery is a rechargeable chemical battery with good comprehensive performance. It has the advantages of high working voltage, high specific energy, long cycle life, and small self-discharge. It is widely used in mobile communications, notebook batteries, portable tools, and electric vehicles. and other fields. The cathode materials currently used in lithium-ion secondary batteries on the market are mainly lithium cobalt oxide, lithium manganese oxide, lithium iron phosphate and other binary / ternary materials containing lithium. These cathode materials all contain precious metal lithium resources. Due to the large amount of positive electrode materials used in lithium-ion batteries, the consumption of non-renewable metal resources is very large....
