Problems solved by technology

[0002] With the development of new energy vehicles, a large number of lithium-ion batteries have entered the market, but lithium-ion batteries have a certain service life and need to be replaced after a period of use, resulting in more waste lithium-ion batteries, and waste lithium-ion batteries contain A lot of valuable metals, if not treated, will cause a lot of waste, and will also cause pollution to the environment. Therefore, the recycling and reuse of waste lithium-ion batteries has become a major challenge for the industry
The recovery of lithium from traditional waste lithium-ion batteries is basically carried out through steps such as acid leaching, impurity removal, extraction and separation, which has problems such as long process, large investment, low recovery rate due to lithium inclusions, and difficult purification treatment.

Abstract

The invention provides a lithium recovery process of waste lithium ion batteries. The process comprises the following steps of firstly crushing the waste lithium ion batteries and then sorting out toobtain positive and negative electrode active material powder and diaphragms; placing the sorted positive and negative electrode active material powder and diaphragms in a roasting furnace for roasting for a certain period of time based on a certain mass ratio at the temperature of 600 DEG C-650 DEG C; leaching roasting product through using oxalic acid solution and then filtering to obtain nickel-cobalt-manganese slag and lithium oxalate solution; adding calcium hydroxide into the lithium oxalate solution for reaction, and filtering to obtain lithium hydroxide solution and calcium oxalate; and finally, adding sulfuric acid into the obtained calcium oxalate for acidifying treatment, and then filtering to obtain oxalic acid solution. The method has the advantages of being simple and novel in process and high in the purity of the obtained lithium hydroxide solution and the recovery rate.
