Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing battery-grade lithium carbonate and iron phosphate by recycling lithium iron phosphate positive electrode waste, and belongs to the field of electronic waste recycling and recycling. The method uses air as an oxidant to oxidize lithium iron phosphate to iron phosphate, so that lithium is released into the solution, and other impurity elements are rarely leached. Lithium solution removes impurities through neutralization and precipitation, and adds saturated sodium carbonate to obtain lithium carbonate product; water leaching slag is mixed with iron powder and a small amount of phosphoric acid for ball milling activation and reduction, and the solid product obtained after activation is stirred and dissolved with phosphoric acid solution, and iron is obtained after filtration. , Phosphorus solution. Utilizing the low solubility of ferric phosphate at high temperature, ferric phosphate is precipitated by high temperature evaporation and crystallization, and ferric phosphate for batteries is obtained after aging, washing and calcination. The method has the advantages of cheap reagents, low acid consumption, high recovery rate of valuable elements, and environmental friendliness.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing battery-grade lithium carbonate and iron phosphate by recycling lithium iron phosphate positive electrode waste, and belongs to the field of electronic waste recycling and recycling. Background technique [0002] As an energy storage device that converts chemical energy and electrical energy, lithium-ion batteries are the driving core of new energy vehicles. Due to its good safety, good cycle performance, stable voltage, and good rate performance, lithium iron phosphate batteries have been rapidly developed in the fields of power vehicles and energy storage. This means that a large amount of waste lithium iron phosphate batteries will be generated in the future. Harmful substances such as electrolytes contained in waste batteries will cause environmental pollution, and valuable metals such as lithium and iron contained in them will cause waste of resources if they are not recycled. Therefore, the recycl...
