This invention discloses a full leaching process for waste
lithium iron phosphate (LFP) black
powder, belonging to the field of LFP black
powder recycling. The process includes the following steps: S1,
raw material pretreatment: obtaining pretreated black
powder with a
moisture content ≤1%; S2, preparation of an
organic acid leaching agent; S3, first iron-
phosphorus leaching; S4, filtering the
reaction system of step S3 using a 0.22μm plate and frame filter to obtain an iron-
phosphorus leaching solution and
lithium-containing
solid filter residue; S5, subsequent
lithium leaching; S6, filtering the
reaction system of step S5 using a 0.22μm plate and frame filter to obtain a lithium leaching solution and
solid residue; S7, adjusting the pH of the iron-
phosphorus leaching solution to 3.5–4.0 with
ammonia water, removing impurities, and crystallizing to obtain battery-grade
iron phosphate; concentrating the lithium leaching solution under reduced pressure at 45–50℃, adding diammonium
hydrogen phosphate to precipitate lithium, and crystallizing to obtain battery-grade
lithium phosphate. This invention involves no
strong acids or toxic reagents throughout the entire process, resulting in minimal equipment
corrosion.
