Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of waste battery recovery, and discloses a method for separating and recovering electrolyte in waste power lithium batteries by means of ultrasonic enhanced extraction. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps: (1) disassembling and crushing waste power lithium batteries under the protection of inert gas and in a closed state to obtain crushed waste batteries; (2) feeding the crushed waste lithium batteries into extraction equipment, and carrying out ultrasonic enhanced extraction to realize extraction separation of the electrolyte; and (3) separating and recovering the extracted electrolyte, a main extraction agent and an auxiliary extraction agent through evaporation and condensation, and recycling the recovered electrolyte, the recovered main extraction agent and the recovered auxiliary extraction agent in the extraction process. The method has the beneficial effects: the method has a wide range of applications; and the electrolyte in power lithium ion batteries is efficiently extracted and separated, and the main extraction agent and the auxiliary extraction agent are recycled after being evaporated and condensed, no polluting gas, liquid or solid waste is generated in the whole process, zero emission of three wastes is truly realized, the method is environment-friendly, and large-scale industrial applicationis easy to realize.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of recycling waste lithium ion batteries, in particular to a method for separating and recycling electrolyte solution in waste power lithium batteries by means of an ultrasonic enhanced extraction method. Background technique [0002] Under the guidance and promotion of national policies, my country's new energy automobile industry has developed rapidly. It is estimated that by 2020, the production and sales of pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles will both exceed 2 million, reaching the target set in the "Energy Saving and New Energy Vehicle Industry Development Plan (2012-2020)" issued by the State Council. According to the service life of the battery for 5-8 years, in 2018 the battery will begin to enter the period of scrapping. According to the forecast of the China Automotive Technology and Research Center, the total scrapping of lithium batteries will reach 32.2Gwh in 2020, about 500,000 tons; the...
