Problems solved by technology

Therefore, it is necessary to control the precipitation speed, solution concentration and other related conditions before precipitation, resulting in high requirements for operation and a corresponding increase in cost
[0005] Therefore, in view of the current situation that the existing waste lithium-ion batteries have not been effectively treated, research and development have been conducted to develop a lithium battery that is low in cost, easy to operate, and can extract and recover a variety of raw materials, especially high-purity cobalt-nickel-manganese crystals. The recycling method of waste has become very necessary and urgent

Abstract

The invention provides a lithium battery waste recycling method and application thereof, and relates to the technical field of waste battery recycling. The method comprises the following steps that firstly, reflux extraction is carried out on lithium battery waste by utilizing a countercurrent washing method to obtain a lithium-rich solution and lithium-removed black powder; then the lithium-rich solution and the lithium-removed black powder are treated respectively, aluminum hydroxide and crude lithium carbonate are extracted from the lithium-rich solution through precipitation and reduction methods, and meanwhile, the lithium-removed black powder is subjected to acid dissolution leaching before reduction leaching; metal impurity ions except cobalt, nickel and manganese in a leaching solution are removed by combining the oxidation-reduction property of metal with the modes of extraction, precipitation and the like; and finally, concentrating and crystallizing are carried out, and cobalt-nickel-manganese mixed salt crystals with high manganese content and cobalt-nickel-manganese mixed salt crystals with high cobalt and nickel contents are respectively prepared by utilizing a hot filtering method and a cooling filtering method. The recycling method has the advantages of being simple in technological process and easy to operate, and the purpose of comprehensively recycling valuable metal from the lithium battery waste is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of waste battery recycling, in particular to a recycling method and application of lithium battery waste. Background technique [0002] Lithium-ion batteries are widely used in various electronic equipment fields due to their high working voltage and specific energy, stable discharge voltage, light weight and small size, long cycle life, and no memory effect. In recent years, as the production of lithium-ion batteries has increased, the amount of waste has also increased year by year. The lifespan of lithium-ion batteries is generally 3 to 5 years. At present, the recycling system has not yet reached a large scale. Most of the waste lithium-ion batteries have not been effectively treated, which not only pollutes the environment, but also wastes a lot of useful resources. [0003] Although there are some recycling methods for lithium ion batteries in the prior art, they are generally acid or alkali leaching ...
