Problems solved by technology

However, there is very little electrolyte that can be poured out in the actual battery, and most of the electrolyte is adsorbed on the positive and negative plates and separators of the battery. Therefore, the method is cumbersome, the recovery cost is high, and the recovery rate of lithium hexafluorophosphate is low.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recovering lithium hexafluorophosphate in a waste lithium ion battery. The method comprises the following steps: fully discharging the waste lithium ion battery, disassembling and removing a housing and a cover plate, removing a wound core; immersing the wound core in a solvent and stirring the wound core, fully leaching lithium hexafluorophosphate in the wound core to obtain an extract of a battery solution; filtering the extract of the battery solution and centrifuging the extract, introducing centrifuge HF gas, and distilling the material to obtain lithium hexafluorophosphate. The method uses the solvent for dissolving lithium hexafluorophosphate in the positive and negative electrode plates and a diaphragm, recovery rate of lithium hexafluorophosphate is high, the production input for the method is less, lithium hexafluorophosphate with high price can be recovered by the material with low cost, material loss during a recovery process is little, considerable economic benefit is created, lithium resource waste is wasted, and pollution of lithium hexafluorophosphate and the electrolyte on environment can be prevented.

Description

[0001] technical field [0002] The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion battery recycling, in particular to a method for recycling lithium hexafluorophosphate in waste lithium ion batteries. Background technique [0003] With the promotion and support of new energy vehicles in various countries, the lithium battery industry has developed rapidly, but a large number of waste batteries have also been produced. If these used batteries are not effectively recycled, it will not only cause serious environmental pollution, but also lead to a serious waste of resources. How to turn lithium batteries into real green energy remains to be further explored and researched. [0004] In view of this, many enterprises and universities at home and abroad have carried out the cascade utilization and material recycling of waste lithium batteries, and there are also many articles and patents on the recycling of lithium batteries. However, most of them are related to pole pi...
