The invention discloses a comprehensive recycling method for positive and negative electrodes of scrapped
lithium batteries. The method concretely comprises the following steps: separating aluminum and
copper from the batteries through pretreatment,
drying the remaining material, adding a phase reconstructing agent, uniformly mixing the remaining material with the phase reconstructing agent, performing low-temperature catalytic calcinations, cooling and crushing the calcined material, performing an impregnating reaction in a neutral salt
system, carrying out
solid-liquid separation, allowing soluble
lithium to enter a
liquid phase, removing impurities, carrying out concentrative
crystallization,
drying and crushing obtained crystals to obtain battery grade
lithium carbonate, introducing
carbon dioxide to the above obtained
crystallization mother liquid, and performing
drying and crushing to obtain the battery grade
lithium carbonate; and allowing insoluble
nickel,
cobalt,
manganese andcarbon to enter a
solid phase, washing the obtained
solid phase, adding an ore dressing agent in a
carbonate radical-containing environment, carrying out flotation to separate carbon from
nickel-
cobalt-
manganese, performing washing, activation, drying and sorting on the separated carbon to obtain a negative
electrode material, and directly washing the separated
nickel-
cobalt-
manganese with pure water to directly become a nickel-cobalt-manganese polynary precursor material
raw material. The method has the advantages of short process, moderate
energy consumption, high comprehensive yield of valuable elements of the positive and negative electrodes, good product quality, environmental friendliness, low cost, and suitableness for industrialization.
