Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lithium battery positive electrode materials, and in particular to a method for recovering all components of waste lithium manganese iron phosphate positive electrode materials. Background Art
[0002] Lithium manganese iron phosphate (LiFe 1-x Mn x Lithium manganese phosphate (LMFP) combines the high thermal stability of LiFePO4 with the high energy density of LiMnPO4, making it widely used as a cathode material for lithium batteries. With the continuous mass production and large-scale application of batteries, the amount of retired lithium manganese iron phosphate cathode material is increasing year by year, making the development of recycling methods for it of great significance.
[0003] Current LMFP recovery methods suffer from cumbersome operations, high acid and alkali consumption, and low product added value. Patent publication number CN 113851748 A describes a method for recycling and regenerating waste olivine-type cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries. This method involves reacting waste manganese iron lithium cathode powder with a strong oxidant and a dilute acid solution to separate the lithium and phosphate. While this method effectively recovers lithium, it also struggles with co-precipitation of iron and manganese, preventing high-value recovery of both.
[0004] Patent publication number CN 115535987 A describes a method for recovering valuable elements from lithium iron manganese phosphate cathode waste. The method involves fully leaching the lithium iron manganese phosphate cathode powder using a high-acid solution, followed by oxidation and pH adjustment to sequentially precipitate crude iron phosphate, manganese phosphate, and lithium phosphate. This method offers a higher recovery rate than traditional methods, but the production cost of the finished product is higher, and the purity of the finished product needs to be further improved.

[0283] Result analysis:
[0284] The carbonic acid lithium, manganese phosphate and iron phosphate are recovered in high yield according to the embodiments of the present application, and the recovered products have high quality, high purity and low impurity content, and can be reused for battery production, realizing resource recycling and utilization.
[0285] According to the comparison results of the embodiments and the comparative examples, it is found that the oxygen blowing in S1 is a very critical step. For example, compared with example 1, the purity of lithium carbonate and manganese phosphate is reduced in example 7 when the reaction is carried out in air, and the purity of each product is relatively reduced in example 8 when the oxygen flow rate is 0.1 m3 / h. In addition, in order to obtain better purity, it is also necessary to control the reaction conditions and the material ratio of each step. For example, compared with example 1, the yield of lithium carbonate and manganese phosphate is slightly reduced in example 10 when the reaction temperature in S1 is 25℃, the purity of lithium carbonate and manganese phosphate is slightly reduced, the yield of manganese phosphate is slightly reduced in example 11 when the mass ratio of the second acid to the waste lithium manganese iron phosphate positive material in S1 is 0.1:1, and the purity of iron phosphate is slightly reduced, the purity of manganese phosphate is slightly reduced in example 12 when the mass ratio of the second acid to the waste lithium manganese iron phosphate positive material in S2 is 0.1:1, the yield of iron phosphate is slightly reduced in example 13 when the mass ratio of the third acid to the waste lithium manganese iron phosphate positive material in S3 is 5:1, and the yield of iron phosphate is slightly reduced in example 14 when the addition amount of the seed crystal in S3 is 0.01:1 relative to the weight of the waste lithium manganese iron phosphate positive material.
[0286] The comparison results of the various embodiments and the comparative examples show that the yield and purity of the comparative examples are partially or totally unsatisfactory, and cannot achieve the purpose of ensuring high recovery rate and purity of the products in the present application. For example, in Comparative Example 1, the yield and purity of lithium carbonate are low in the S1 step of reducing the pH value, and the yield of manganese phosphate is also low. In Comparative Example 2, the purity of lithium carbonate is low in the S2 step of replacing manganese phosphate hydrate with hydrogen peroxide. In Comparative Example 3, the yield of the three products is low, and the purity of lithium carbonate and manganese phosphate is low in the S2 step of not using manganese phosphate hydrate. In Comparative Example 4, the yield of ferric phosphate is low, and the purity of manganese phosphate is low in the S4 step of pH value being 2.0. In Comparative Example 5, the yield of manganese phosphate is greatly reduced, and the purity of ferric phosphate is greatly reduced in the S2 step of insufficient acid addition in the initial stage and no intermediate addition. In Comparative Example 6, the yield of lithium carbonate is greatly reduced, the yield and purity of manganese phosphate are slightly reduced, and the yield of ferric phosphate is greatly reduced in the S1 step of reacting the waste and old manganese iron lithium phosphate positive electrode material with manganese phosphate hydrate in a closed atmosphere, so that the oxygen content is insufficient after 1 h of reaction, and the reaction is carried out in an oxygen-free environment to the end of the reaction. The purpose of ensuring high recovery rate of the products in the present application is not achieved.
[0287] The above results also reveal that there is an inherent correlation between the content of impurity phosphate and the purity of lithium carbonate. When the content of phosphate impurity is controlled to be relatively appropriate, the purity of lithium carbonate is high, and the recovery rate is also relatively ideal. This may be related to the specific process of the oxidant manganese phosphate hydrate participating in the reaction. In our speculation, this specific oxide is extremely likely to have the dual functions of oxidant and inducer of crystallization. While participating in the oxidation of the waste powder, it can make a small amount of dissolved manganese and phosphate components remain in the form of precipitate in the slag, thereby helping us to achieve high recovery rate and high purity of the target product.
