Problems solved by technology

However, due to the damage or even falling off of the carbon layer coated on the surface of the waste lithium iron phosphate, and the influence of the conductive carbon black mixed in the positive electrode during the recovery process, the carbon distribution in the waste lithium iron phosphate is not uniform, resulting in the repair of lithium iron phosphate in the prior art. higher resistivity and lower capacity
[0004] The invention patent with the publication number CN113582153A discloses a repaired and regenerated waste lithium iron phosphate positive electrode material and its repair and regeneration method. A carbon source is added to the waste lithium iron phosphate, and the carbon source is used as a reducing agent during the roasting process. On the one hand, the formation of amorphous carbon forms a layer of carbon layer in situ on the surface of lithium iron phosphate particles. Although it can supplement the carbon content, it still cannot overcome the shortcomings of uneven carbon distribution, and the obtained repaired lithium iron phosphate has a low capacity.
[0005] The invention patent with the publication number CN112174107A discloses a method for repairing and regenerating lithium iron phosphate positive electrode materials in waste batteries. After roasting waste and old lithium iron phosphate to remove carbon impurities, adding carbon sources, repairing by hydrothermal reaction, but this regeneration method cannot be used The original carbon in waste lithium iron phosphate has complex operation, long reaction time, low repair efficiency, high regeneration cost, and is not suitable for industrial production
