Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of recycling methods and product utilization of waste lithium ion batteries, and in particular relates to a method for recycling lithium cobalt oxide cathode materials of lithium ion batteries. Background technique [0002] Since the commercialization of lithium-ion batteries in 1990, they have gradually replaced secondary batteries such as traditional nickel-metal hydride batteries and lead-acid batteries because of their advantages such as high energy density, high working voltage, good safety, long cycle life and small self-discharge. Batteries are widely used in mobile communications, instruments and computers, and become the main force in the secondary battery market. At the same time, with the development of new energy strategies in various countries in recent years, the development of electric vehicles, especially hybrid vehicles, is particularly rapid, and the market share of lithium-ion batteries in the power...
