Embodiment 1

[0051] Pretreatment: Put the retired lithium-ion battery in a 5% NaCl solution and soak it in the battery for 96 hours. Use the action of conductive salt to short-circuit the positive and negative electrodes to consume electricity, and the final battery voltage is lower than 0.5V.

[0052] Pretreatment: disassemble the lithium-ion battery pack to obtain a single battery, and then sort out the battery shell, electrodes and separators. After mechanically crushing and grinding the electrodes, they were placed in the roasting furnace for 2.5 hours, and the medium-temperature flue gas generated by the annealing furnace was used to provide heat for the roasting furnace. After the reaction is completed, the electrode sheet is taken out and cooled, and the powdery active material can be peeled off and collected from the current collector by shaking the electrode sheet lightly. Its volatile, low temperature flue gas is finally discharged after being treated by waste gas treatment equip...

Abstract

The invention discloses a lithium ion battery positive electrode material recycling and regenerating process, which does not separate and purify valuable metals in a leaching solution, but directly supplements elements and adjusts the proportion of the elements to regenerate the positive electrode material, so that the tedious separation step is omitted, and the process cost is reduced. The method has the advantages that the problem of complicated element separation of a nickel, cobalt, manganese and lithium mixed solution system can be avoided, the lithium loss is reduced, the additional value of regenerated products can be obviously increased, the recovery efficiency and the economical efficiency are improved, and the closed circulation of waste lithium ion battery materials is realized; high-temperature flue gas generated by the regeneration furnace is conveyed to the annealing furnace, the roasting furnace and the atomizing chamber for multi-stage full utilization, multi-stage utilization of high-temperature flue gas, medium-temperature flue gas, low-temperature flue gas and waste gas is achieved in the whole flue gas circulation process, energy consumption in the process is saved, and heat loss of the system is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of recycling waste batteries, in particular to a recycling and regeneration process for positive electrode materials of lithium ion batteries. Background technique [0002] Since the commercialization of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) by Sony Corporation in 1990, they have been widely used in electronic products, electric vehicles, and energy storage devices. The service life of lithium-ion battery products is about 3-10 years. Therefore, a large number of lithium-ion batteries will be retired at the current stage and for a long time in the future. Lithium-ion batteries are mainly composed of an outer shell and an inner core. The inner core is its core part, including positive electrode material, negative electrode material, electrolyte and separator. The cathode material is the most important component that determines the performance of lithium-ion batteries. Commonly used cathode materials include ternary m...
