Problems solved by technology

Although existing patents and periodicals and other documents disclose or report the comprehensive utilization method of waste lithium-ion batteries, the process flow is long, especially the lithium recovery process is long, the concentration is low, and lithium carbonate products cannot be directly precipitated to prepare lithium; at the same time, the existing In the patent, the ternary precursor is directly prepared after the leaching solution of the lithium-ion battery is purified. Compared with the precursor prepared by the traditional process of nickel-cobalt-manganese sulfate, the battery prepared according to this precursor has poor electrochemical performance and poor cycle effect.
Based on the technology disclosed in the existing patents, it is impossible to realize the process of efficiently and preferentially extracting lithium from waste lithium-ion batteries as raw materials and simultaneously preparing high-quality ternary precursors

Abstract

The invention provides a recycling method of waste lithium ion batteries. The recycling method comprises the following steps: leaching out ternary waste lithium battery electric core powder by using sulfuric acid and potassium permanganate for the first time so as to obtain leaching liquid and leaching slag; regulating the pH value of the leaching liquid to reach 7 to 9, and then performing impurity removal to obtain high-concentration lithium-containing solution; performing lithium deposition on the high-concentration lithium-containing solutions by using sodium carbonate to obtain lithium carbonate; neutrally leaching the leaching slag by using the sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide to obtain neutral leaching liquid and neutral leaching slag; performing acidic leaching on the neutral leaching slag by using the sulfuric acid and the hydrogen peroxide, enabling the obtained acidic leaching liquid to be returned and then performing neural leaching and continuously leaching out; and synthesizing the neural leaching liquid, a nickel source, a cobalt source and a manganese source to obtain a ternary precursor. The recycling method of the waste lithium ion batteries disclosed by the invention has the advantages that technological processes are short and the leaching ratio of the lithium is high, a lithium carbonate product can be directly prepared, the problem of tediously long recycling process of the lithium is solved, and moreover, after lithium extraction is carried out, leaching slag adopts the two-section leaching process, so that the recycling rate of valuable metals isincreased, and the cost is reduced.
