Problems solved by technology

Pyrochemical recovery requires high investment in equipment and high pressure on environmental protection. Metals need to be further processed before they can be used, and the cost is high.
[0005] In the prior art, regardless of wet recycling or fire recycling, metals such as Co and Li in waste batteries are recycled as raw materials, which has a long process and high recycling costs.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for reparative regeneration of a lithium cobalt oxide anode material in waste batteries. The method includes: separating the anode material from lithium cobalt oxide waste batteries; laying positive pole pieces on a mesh belt, and controlling the mesh belt to vibrate continuously while controlling gas to pass through the meshes of the mesh belt from bottom to top; under conditions of vibration of the mesh belt and gas circulation of the meshes of the mesh belt, respectively heating the positive pole pieces for 10-60min at 100-300 DEG C and 380-520 DEG C, and collecting anode material powder I; sequentially subjecting the anode material powder I to screening removal of broken aluminum foils and electromagnetic removal of iron to obtain anode material powder II, and sampling to detect contents of Li, Co and Al in the anode material powder II; replenishing Li element and Al element to the anode material powder II according to a detection result obtained at the step 4 to obtain anode material powder III, wherein a mole ratio of Li to Co to Al is 1-1.05:1-x:x, and x refers to 0.05-0.2; subjecting the anode material powder III to ball milling in a high-energy ball mill to obtain anode material powder IV; calcining the anode material powder IV in a pure oxygen atmosphere to obtain repaired regenerated lithium cobalt oxide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the recycling of waste batteries, in particular to a method for repairing and regenerating lithium cobalt oxide cathode materials in waste batteries. Background technique [0002] Since its commercialization, lithium-ion batteries have been widely used in civilian and military fields, such as cameras, Mobile phones, notebook computers, and portable thermometers, etc., while lithium-ion batteries are also one of the preferred light-weight high-energy power batteries for electric vehicles. [0003] After 500-1000 charge and discharge cycles of a lithium-ion battery, its active material will lose its activity, resulting in a decrease in the capacity of the battery and causing the battery to be scrapped. Lithium-ion battery recycling technology can be divided into wet recycling and fire recycling. The wet process includes pretreatment (dismantling, sorting, etc.) and recovery of cobalt and other metals. For the classified positi...
