Problems solved by technology

However, the conductive powder discharge technology also has the problems of small discharge current, slow discharge speed and unguaranteed discharge efficiency.
Chinese patent documents CN210956909U and CN106207297B adopt resistive loads to discharge, but it is easy to have problems such as excessive temperature in the discharge process, potential safety hazards and incomplete discharge.

Abstract

The invention provides a safe discharging method for a waste lithium ion battery, which comprises the following steps of: freezing a waste lithium ion battery to temporarily inactivate the battery; connecting the frozen battery to a solid load discharging loop to form a discharging device; putting the discharging device into a low-temperature box, carrying out real-time voltage detection on the waste lithium ion battery to be discharged, adjusting the temperature of the low-temperature box according to the detected voltage value, controlling the discharging rate of the battery, and starting discharging; and when the voltage of the battery drops below a set value, stopping discharging, taking the battery out, and entering a subsequent procedure. The waste lithium ion battery connected with the discharging loop is put into the low-temperature box, the temperature during discharge is adjusted in a segmented manner according to the voltage monitored in real time, the discharge rate at the initial stage of discharge can be reduced, the safety during discharge is ensured, the discharge degree is judged through a battery voltage detection controller, the discharge rate at the later stage of discharge is improved, and safe and efficient discharging of the waste lithium ion battery is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of recycling waste lithium ion batteries, in particular to a method for safely discharging waste lithium ion batteries. Background technique [0002] With the advancement of new energy product technology, especially the demand for lithium-ion batteries in the electronic market and electric vehicle market is increasing year by year. As of the end of 2017, my country has promoted more than 1.8 million new energy vehicles and assembled about 86.9GWh of power batteries. Since 2018, lithium-ion batteries will gradually enter a large-scale decommissioning period, and the problem of lithium-ion battery disposal is imminent. [0003] At present, the lithium-ion battery recycling method is mainly to carry out physical crushing and sorting first, and then carry out wet recovery of valuable metal elements. When waste lithium-ion batteries are mechanically and physically crushed, because some batteries contain residual...
