Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of battery technology, and in particular to a stepped charge-discharge load regulation method for recycling waste lithium batteries. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of the global new energy vehicle industry, the retirement of power batteries has become an unavoidable challenge. According to statistics from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, my country's new energy vehicle sales reached 6.887 million units in 2022 (a year-on-year increase of 90%). Based on this, it is estimated that the installed capacity of power batteries will also surge accordingly. Assuming an average service life of 5 years for power batteries, it is estimated that by 2030, the total amount of retired batteries in my country will exceed 2.37 million tons, and the market size is expected to reach hundreds of billions of yuan. If these retired batteries are not scientifically treated, they will cause various hazards, such as heavy metal pollution, electrolyte leakage, and resource waste.
[0003] In response to this pressing situation, my country's "Interim Measures for the Management of Recycling and Utilization of Power Batteries for New Energy Vehicles" clearly proposes the recycling principle of "first using in stages and then regenerating," aiming to extend the entire life cycle of batteries through a multi-level utilization model, alleviate environmental pressure, and tap into remaining economic value.
[0004] Currently, the secondary utilization of spent lithium batteries requires restoring the performance of retired batteries and adjusting their consistency before reuse. However, traditional load adjustment methods have many drawbacks:
[0005] (1) Traditional load adjustment strategies require battery packs to operate synchronously, and their performance is limited by the weakest single cell. High-capacity batteries cannot fully release energy, while low-capacity batteries are prone to overcharging / over-discharging and accelerated damage.
[0006] (2) The aging mechanism of retired batteries is complicated (such as lithium loss, active material decay or structural damage, etc.), and the performance of recycled lithium-ion batteries is inconsistent and the battery pack efficiency is not high.
[0007] (3) The SOC estimation error of traditional BMS based on a fixed model is as high as 10% to 15%;
[0008] (4) Load adjustment is generally used in the fields of new battery manufacturing and waste battery recycling. However, since new batteries do not need to consider aging issues such as internal micro-short circuits and active material shedding, the load adjustment method for waste battery recycling cannot simply refer to the load adjustment scheme for new batteries. Summary of the Invention
[0009] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this invention proposes a stepped charge-discharge load regulation method for recycling waste lithium-ion batteries, comprising the following steps:
[0010] S3, Consistent Load Adjustment Phase
[0011] S3-1. Charge the waste lithium batteries after capacity testing. Increase the charging current from 0C to the fourth target value for 3-8 minutes. Maintain the fourth target value current for 60-120 minutes. After charging, let them rest for 3-5 minutes to obtain waste lithium batteries in A% SOC state.
[0012] S3-2. Discharge the waste lithium battery in A% SOC state in S3-1. Increase the discharge current from 0C to the fifth target value for 3-8 minutes. Maintain the fifth target value current for 1-20 minutes to obtain the waste lithium battery in B% SOC state.
[0013] S3-3. After letting the waste lithium batteries in the B% SOC state from step S3-2 rest for 3-5 minutes, detect the load adjustment termination voltage, retain the waste lithium batteries whose load adjustment termination voltage is within the predetermined range, and monitor the voltage drop value (dV / dt) of the retained waste lithium batteries.
[0014] S3-4. Retain waste lithium batteries with voltage drop values within a predetermined range, and combine waste lithium batteries with similar voltage drop values into new battery packs.
[0015] In this invention, the gradual current significantly reduces the polarization phenomenon during the battery charging and discharging process. Only a very short rest time is required to accurately and efficiently redistribute the battery through a single voltage drop value.
[0016] In step S3:
[0017] The fourth and fifth target values are each independently selected from 0.1-0.4C;
[0018] B and A are each independently selected from 20-40, and A > B.
[0019] In step S3-3:
[0020] When the waste lithium battery is an LFP battery, the predetermined range of the load adjustment termination voltage is 3.2-3.35V;
[0021] When the waste lithium battery is an NCM-based battery, the predetermined range of the load adjustment termination voltage is 3.5-3.7V.
[0022] In steps S3-4:
[0023] The predetermined range for the voltage drop value is 0-0.005V for 3 days and 0-0.025V for 14 days.
[0024] In this invention, the detection of the load-adjusting voltage not only provides an initial voltage value for the subsequent voltage drop, but also verifies whether the SOC value is within the range of 20-40% SOC.
[0025] The stepped charge-discharge load regulation method for recycling waste lithium batteries proposed in this invention further includes the following steps:
[0026] S1, Power Release Phase;
[0027] S2, Battery capacity calibration stage.
[0028] In this invention, the battery capacity calibration is a preliminary step and an important indicator for the redistribution and reorganization of waste batteries.
[0029] Step S1 includes:
[0030] S1-1. After leaving the waste lithium battery for 3-5 minutes, discharge it. Increase the discharge current from 0C to the first target value and continue for 3-8 minutes.
[0031] S1-2, Maintain a constant current at the first target value to complete the release of the main capacity of the waste lithium battery;
[0032] S1-3. After the main capacity of the waste lithium battery is released, the discharge current is gradually reduced from the first target value to 0C for 3-8 minutes. Then the waste lithium battery is left to stand for 3-5 minutes to obtain a waste lithium battery in 0% SOC state.
[0033] In step S1:
[0034] The first target value is 0.3-0.7C.
[0035] Step S2 includes:
[0036] S2-1. Charge the waste lithium battery at 0% SOC by gradually increasing the charging current from 0C to the second target value for 3-8 minutes and record the charging capacity C0 during this stage.
[0037] S2-2, Maintain a constant current at the second target value and continue charging for 120-180 minutes to complete the injection of the main capacity of the waste lithium battery;
[0038] S2-3. Under the charging cutoff voltage of the waste lithium battery, constant voltage charging is performed, and the charging current is reduced from the second target value to the cutoff current. The total capacity C1 of steps S2-2 and S2-3 is recorded. After charging is completed, the waste lithium battery is left to stand for 3-5 minutes to obtain a waste lithium battery in 100% SOC state.
[0039] S2-4. Perform the first discharge on the waste lithium battery in 100% SOC state. Increase the discharge current from 0C to the third target value and continue for 3-8 minutes. Then maintain the third target value current for continuous discharge for 120-180 minutes to complete the release of the main capacity of the waste lithium battery. After the first discharge of the waste lithium battery in 100% SOC state is completed, let the battery rest for 5-10 minutes.
[0040] S2-5. Perform a second discharge on the waste lithium battery that has completed the main capacity release in step S2-4. The discharge current gradually decreases from the third target value to the step value 1, and the duration is 3-8 minutes. Maintain the step value 1 and continue discharging for 30-120 minutes. After completion, let the battery rest for 3-5 minutes.
[0041] S2-6. Perform a third discharge on the waste lithium battery that has completed the second discharge in step S2-5. The discharge current decreases from step value 1 to step value 2, and the duration is 3-8 minutes. Then the battery is kept at step value 2 and discharged for 10-60 minutes. After completion, let the battery rest for 1-5 minutes to obtain a waste lithium battery with 0% SOC.
[0042] S2-7. The total charging capacity C0+C1 of steps S2-1, S2-2 and S2-3 is the maximum charging capacity of the battery. The total discharging capacity C2+C3+C4 of steps S2-4, S2-5 and S2-6 is the maximum discharging capacity of the battery. The waste lithium batteries are allocated for the first time according to the capacity value.
[0043] In step S2:
[0044] The second target value and the third target value are each independently selected from 0.3-0.7C; the cutoff current is ≤0.02C; the step value 1 is 0.1-0.3C; and the step value 2 is 0.02-0.1C.
[0045] In step S2-3:
[0046] When the waste lithium battery is an LFP battery, the charging cut-off voltage is 3.65V;
[0047] When the waste lithium battery is an NCM-based battery, the charging cut-off voltage is 4.2V.
[0048] In this invention, the voltage drop value and the rated charge / discharge capacity can be used as parameters for subsequent battery pack grouping.
[0049] In this invention, the stepped load adjustment method for waste lithium batteries mainly includes the following principles:
[0050] (1) Ordered migration mechanism of lithium ions: The charging and discharging of lithium-ion batteries is essentially the directional migration of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes. During charging, Li + The material is extracted from the positive electrode lattice, passes through the electrolyte channel and the separator, and then embeds into the negative electrode graphite layered structure. The reaction that occurs during discharge is the opposite of that during charging. This cycle is the charging and discharging process of the battery.
[0051] (2) Gradual Current Protection Electrode: Stepped charging and discharging controls the gradual change of current to match the lithium ion insertion / extraction rate with the lattice change rate of the electrode material, reducing ion transport resistance. As the current gradually increases from 0C to the target value, Li... + Orderly detachment from the crystal lattice avoids excessive local stress, protecting the electrode material and extending the lifespan of the lithium battery; as the current gradually decreases from the target value to 0C, the residual Li... + Sufficient diffusion time allows for a more uniform ion distribution on the electrode surface, reducing lithium metal deposition on the electrode surface.
[0052] (3) Reduce polarization effect and capacity release: Adding a short rest time before and after each charge and discharge stage can effectively reduce or eliminate concentration polarization and balance the battery potential.
[0053] Beneficial effects of this invention:
[0054] (1) The method used in this application can eliminate the passive static stage of 30 to 60 minutes in the traditional load adjustment scheme, shorten the equipment running time by 3-7%, significantly improve the recovery efficiency, and reduce the overall energy consumption by 2% to 10%.
[0055] (2) After the load adjustment, the battery packs of this scheme have similar capacities and basically consistent voltage drops, which ensures the performance consistency of the battery packs and eliminates the overall systemic shortcomings.
[0056] (3) This invention uses voltage drop (dV / dt) as a state indicator by analyzing the voltage change trend, abandoning the SOC model calculation, reducing computing power requirements while improving response speed and reducing estimation errors;
[0057] (4) The pressure drop can be monitored in real time, without the need for multiple load tests to measure the pressure drop. The operation is simple and the working cycle is short. Attached Figure Description

[0100] Comparative Example 1
[0101] This comparative example proposes a charging and discharging load adjustment method for recycling waste lithium-ion batteries. The specific steps are the same as in Example 1, except that the charging and discharging current in step S3 and the consistency load adjustment stage are all replaced with a constant current of 0.2C.
[0102] Comparative Example 1 uses a traditional load adjustment method, namely high-current constant-current charging and discharging load adjustment. However, due to the excessive change in the initial current value, Li... + The instantaneous large-scale insertion and extraction can cause stress concentration in the electrode lattice, resulting in microcracks and damage to the electrode material. When traditional charging and discharging terminates, the current stops abruptly, and the uneven distribution of ions on the electrode surface can lead to concentration polarization.
[0103] Comparative Example 2
[0104] This comparative example proposes a stepped charge-discharge load regulation method for recycling waste lithium batteries. The specific steps are the same as in Example 1, except that "maintain a constant temperature of 25°C in operation steps S1-S3" is changed to "maintain a constant temperature of 45°C in operation steps S1-S3".
[0105] In Comparative Example 2, although high temperature environment will accelerate the internal physicochemical reaction of the battery, since the load adjustment object of this invention is a recycled waste lithium battery, high temperature will aggravate the internal electrochemical reaction and related side reaction of the waste lithium battery, causing the loss of active materials, resulting in unnecessary loss and waste.
[0106] Comparative Example 3
[0107] This comparative example proposes a stepped charge-discharge load adjustment method for recycling waste lithium batteries. The specific steps are the same as in Example 1, except that step "S2, battery capacity calibration stage" is omitted.
[0108] In Comparative Example 3, since most of the recycled waste lithium batteries have been cycled multiple times, their capacity has changed compared to new batteries. When adjusting the load without knowing the capacity of the waste lithium batteries, it is impossible to group them according to the capacity differences. As a result, the performance of the battery packs after redistribution and recombination is inconsistent, and the systemic shortcomings are obvious.
[0109] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
