Problems solved by technology

Hydrochloric acid leaching method, equipment corrosion, large amount of acid mist and environmental pollution
Sulfuric acid leaching consumes more expensive reducing agents (such as hydrogen peroxide, etc.), and the leaching speed is slow and the acid consumption is high
The consumption of nitric acid in the nitric acid leaching method is large, and a large amount of nitrogen oxides will be produced, polluting the environment
All wet processes have the problem of how to economically increase the leaching speed, increase the metal leaching rate, and reduce the consumption of acid and other auxiliary materials.
Although the pure oxygen leaching method in the nitric acid processing industry and the pure oxygen leaching method in the mixed acid processing industry have solved the above problems, the leaching equipment is more complicated, and the amount of industrial pure oxygen required for the leaching of waste batteries is not large, and waste battery treatment enterprises produce on-site Industrial pure oxygen is not economical for personal use, and the storage, transportation and use of industrial pure oxygen are troublesome

Embodiment 1

[0012] Embodiment 1: 100g nickel-hydrogen waste battery positive electrode material (containing nickel 56.4%, cobalt 5.9%) is added in the stainless steel pressure reaction kettle that volume is 2L, adds the sulfuric acid 850ml of 1.5mol / L, adds (NH 4 ) 2 SO 3 65g (350ml solution), leached at 40℃~50℃ under closed stirring (stirring speed 80r / min) for 2.5h, after leaching, liquid-solid separation was carried out to obtain 1150ml leaching solution (excluding leaching slag washing water). The leaching rates of nickel and cobalt are 98.5% and 98.1% respectively (calculated based on nickel and cobalt entering the leaching solution and leaching slag washing solution).

Embodiment 2

[0013] Embodiment 2: 500g nickel metal hydride waste battery cathode material (containing nickel 56.4%, cobalt 5.9%) is added in the stainless steel pressure reaction kettle that volume is 5L, adds the sulfuric acid 2500ml of 3.0mol / L, adds (NH 4 ) 2 SO 3 360g (1700ml solution), leaching at 70℃~80℃ under closed stirring (stirring speed 70r / min) for 1.0h, after leaching, liquid-solid separation was carried out to obtain 4000ml leaching solution (excluding leaching slag washing water). The leaching rates of nickel and cobalt are 99.5% and 99.4% respectively (calculated based on nickel and cobalt entering the leaching solution and leaching slag washing solution).

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for leaching a positive pole material of a waste nickel-metal hydride battery. The method comprises the steps of putting the positive pole material which is separated from the waste nickel-metal hydride battery and is subjected to roasting pretreatment into a vessel which is resistant to pressure and the corrosion of sulfuric acid, pumping sulfuric acid into the vessel, then, sealing the vessel, pumping a (NH4)2SO3 solution into the vessel by using an injection pump, then, closing a (NH4)2SO3 solution pumping valve, and leaching.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for leaching the positive electrode material of nickel-hydrogen waste batteries. Background technique [0002] Ni-MH batteries are a type of batteries widely used, and a large amount of waste batteries will be produced after the batteries are scrapped. Because this type of battery contains a large amount of heavy metals, if it is discarded into the environment, it will cause great direct and potential harm to the environment. The positive electrode material of nickel-metal hydride batteries mainly contains nickel and cobalt, and the total content of the two is as high as 50-70%, which is very valuable for recycling. At present, the processes for recovering nickel and cobalt from the positive electrode materials of nickel-metal hydride batteries mainly include fire process and wet process. The products obtained by the fire process are alloy materials, and it is difficult to obtain relatively pure nickel and cobalt. ...
