Problems solved by technology

The general components of the positive electrode materials of waste lithium batteries are lithium iron phosphate, lithium manganese oxide, lithium cobalt oxide, nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary materials, etc. Therefore, the proportion of metal elements such as nickel, cobalt, manganese, and lithium in the positive electrode materials are different, and even the proportion of the same ternary cathode material is very different. Therefore, it is difficult to reuse the cathode material, especially for the composite cathode material.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for low-cost cleaning treatment of a waste lithium ion battery cathode material. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out high-temperature reduction and grinding on a pretreated waste lithium ion battery cathode material to obtain a reduction product with the particle size less than 200 [mu]m; carrying out water leaching on the reduction product, and carrying out solid-liquid separation to obtain water leaching residues and a filtrate; performing magnetic separation on the water leaching residues to obtain magnetic nickel-cobalt alloy and non-magnetic manganese oxide; and removing impurities from the filtrate, and carrying out evaporative crystallization on the impurity-removed filtrate to obtain a LiOH product. According to the method, hydrogen is adopted to perform selective reduction on the lithium ion battery cathode material, the lithium element in the reduction product is dissolved in an aqueous solution easily, and the lithium leaching rate can reach 95% or more through one-time water leaching without multi-stage leaching, so that the process flow is simplified while the high recovery rate of the lithium element is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of recycling waste lithium ion batteries, in particular to a low-cost method for cleaning and treating positive electrode materials of waste lithium ion batteries. Background technique [0002] Lithium batteries have excellent physical and chemical properties such as high energy density, high voltage, fast charging and discharging, and good cycle stability. They are widely used in electronic technology products such as mobile phones and notebook computers, and have formed a huge market size, especially electric The development of automobiles has greatly increased the demand for lithium batteries. However, the life of lithium batteries is generally only 2 to 3 years. Some waste lithium batteries can be used in cascades, and waste lithium batteries that cannot be used in cascades can only be scrapped. With the increase in the use of lithium batteries, the amount of scrapped batteries is also increasing. By 2020, the to...
