The invention discloses a method for preparing
lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide by taking a waste
lithium ion battery as a
raw material. The method is mainly characterized in that a waste
lithium ion battery taking the lithium
nickel cobalt manganese oxide, lithium
nickel cobalt oxide and so on as a battery positive material is selected as the
raw material and is pretreated through disassembly, separation, crushing, screening and so on, and then processes such as
adhesive removal at high temperature and aluminum removal by
sodium hydroxide are adopted to obtain an inactivated positive material containing nickel, cobalt and
manganese; then a
sulfuric acid and
hydrogen peroxide system is adopted to leach, and P204 is adopted to remove impurities by extraction to obtain pure nickel, cobalt and manganese solution, and proper manganese
sulfate, nickel
sulfate or
cobalt sulfate is blended to ensure that the mol ratio of nickel, cobalt and manganese elements in the solution is 1: 1: 1; and then
ammonium carbonate is adopted to adjust the pH value to form a nickel cobalt manganese
carbonate precursor, and then a proper amount of
lithium carbonate is blended for high temperature
sintering to synthesize a lithium nickel cobalt
manganese oxide battery material. The first
discharge capacity of the material is 150 mAh / g, the
discharge capacity is still kept more than 130mAh / g after the circulation for 30 times, and the material has good electrochemical performance.
