Problems solved by technology

This method recovers manganese and lithium elements, but high temperature treatment is used many times, the energy consumption is high, and the lithium yield is low
[0005] Other methods such as ion exchange method, sulfide bacteria leaching, etc. have successfully recovered valuable metal elements, but these methods have certain limitations. For example, the operation of ion exchange method is relatively complicated and the steps are cumbersome, and it is only suitable for the separation and purification of a small amount of ions. ; Bacteria culture, harsh conditions of use, and difficulty in industrialization of sulfide bacteria leaching technology have restricted the application and promotion of the technology

Embodiment 1

[0084] A certain type of waste lithium manganese oxide battery is used as raw material. Firstly, the waste batteries are discharged, disassembled, and screened to obtain positive electrode materials. Weigh 850g of lithium manganate positive electrode material and treat it in a muffle furnace at 450°C for 2h, then remove the binder, quench it with water and process it in ultrasonic vibration for 30min, so that the positive electrode material and aluminum foil are peeled off. The large mesh screen is used to remove and separate the aluminum foil, and the aluminum foil can be directly used for aluminum smelting after washing. The obtained black fine slag was treated with 4mol / L sulfuric acid, and 30% hydrogen peroxide was added at the same time, the solid-liquid ratio was controlled to be 80g / L, the temperature was controlled at 30°C, and the leaching solution of valuable metals was obtained by filtration. The acid leaching residue is mainly acid-insoluble matter such as carbon ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and system for recovering lithium and manganese from a waste lithium manganate battery. The method comprises the following steps that a positive plate is disassembledfrom the waste lithium manganate battery; a binder in the positive plate is removed, valuable metal elements in the positive plate are leached by acid dissolution, and acidified leachate is obtained;ultrafiltration treatment is carried out on the acidified leachate by using an ultrafiltration membrane; by using a nanofiltration membrane technology, lithium ions in the acidified leachate are separated from other cations different from lithium ions, a solution containing lithium and a solution containing other cations are obtained, and then a reverse osmosis technology is adopted for concentration and enrichment correspondingly, wherein the other cations comprise manganese ions; and a lithium precipitant is adopted to precipitate and separate lithium ions in the lithium-containing solution,and alkaline substances are adopted to precipitate and separate manganese ions in the solution containing other cations, so that the recovery of lithium and manganese is realized. According to the method and system, the ultrafiltration-nanofiltration-reverse osmosis combined technology is adopted, and the method and system have the beneficial effects of simple process, environmental protection, less acid and alkali consumption, good and stable membrane separation effect and the like.
