Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recovering and preparing a nickel-cobalt-manganese-aluminum quaternary positive electrode material from a waste nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary lithium-ion battery. The method comprises the following steps of (1) obtaining a leach solution containing Cu<2+>, Al<3+>, Li<+>, Ni<2+>, Co<2+> and Mn<2+> from the waste ternary lithium-ion battery through manual disassembly, magnetic separation, crushing, organic solvent soaking, screening and sulfuric acid leaching, and carrying out purification (Cu<2+>) treatment on the leach solution to obtain a purified liquid; (2) adjusting the molar ratio of Al to Ni to Co to Mn in the purified liquid, adding alkali metal hydroxide, adjusting the pH of a system until the pH is greater than or equal to 10 and carrying out primary precipitation to obtain a turbid liquid in which NCM hydroxide is precipitated; (3) adding carbonate to the turbid liquid in the step (2) for secondary precipitation, and carrying out solid-liquid separation to obtain a quaternary material precursor; and (4) burning the quaternary material precursor in air to obtain an Al-doped NCM quaternary positive electrode material. The method is simple in technology, wide in raw material source and high in repeatability; the prepared quaternary positive electrode material is excellent in cycle performance; and large-scale production can be carried out.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of waste lithium-ion battery recycling, in particular to a method for preparing aluminum-doped nickel-cobalt-manganese quaternary positive electrode materials in one step by using waste nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary lithium-ion batteries as raw materials. Background technique [0002] The increasing shortage of energy and the serious changes in the earth's ecological environment are gradually becoming two major obstacles to the development of human civilization.
