Abstract

The invention provides a method for cleanly recycling nickel and / or cobalt from a positive electrode material. The method comprises the following steps: (1) reducing the nickel and / or cobalt in the positive electrode material to obtain a reduction material; (2) mixing the reduction material and an ammoniacal solution in a closed container, leaching under the condition that the pressure of carbon dioxide gas is 0.2 to 1.0 MPa and then performing first solid-liquid separation to obtain leaching residues and leaching liquid; and (3) performing aftertreatment on the leaching liquid to obtain the nickel and / or cobalt. By the method, the leaching rate of the nickel and / or cobalt in the positive electrode material is high, the obtained nickel and / or cobalt has low impurity content, the process condition is mild, the flow is simple, the process is clean, and the obtained nickel / cobalt can be used for preparing the positive electrode material of a battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of resource recovery, and relates to a method for recovering nickel and / or cobalt in positive electrode materials, in particular to a method for cleaning and recovering nickel and / or cobalt in positive electrode materials. Background technique [0002] With the development of the new energy vehicle industry, the power battery industry for new energy vehicles is growing rapidly. At the same time, about 15wt% of the total power batteries are scrapped every year. It is expected that the climax of power battery scrapping will be ushered in the near future, and a large number of waste batteries will inevitably face a situation that cannot be disposed of. If waste batteries are not disposed of safely, it will cause great harm to the environment and public safety. The current conventional practice is mainly to recycle the metal element in the outer skin and the positive and negative current collectors after the ba...
