Description

Technical Field
The invention relates to waste lithium ion battery resource recovery, in particular to a dressing and smelting combined comprehensive recovery method and device for waste lithium ion batteries.
Background
Along with the coming of the scrapped tide of the lithium ion battery, a large amount of recovery processes are developed and applied at a time. At present, the main problems of the waste lithium ion battery recycling process are that the process is mainly focused on recycling of nickel and cobalt with high content and high market price in the waste lithium ion battery, and the recycling attention degree of lithium elements with low content is lower, so that the recycling rate of nickel, cobalt and manganese in most recycling processes is higher, and the recycling rate of lithium is lower. 2. At present, the definition of solid wastes generated in the field of battery recovery is not perfect, the treatment process of a large amount of fluorine-containing and phosphorus-containing diaphragm plastic parts is not perfect, but along with the maturity of the recovery industry, a large amount of solid wastes are subjected to harmless treatment.
CN 109935922a discloses a method for recovering valuable metals from waste lithium ion battery anode materials, which uses low-valence sulfate mixture such as sulfur, sulfide and the like as reducing agent to reduce high-valence compounds in the anode materials, then uses water or weak acid to leach reduction roasting slag, and the leaching solution is used for recovering lithium, and the leaching slag is used for recovering nickel and cobalt after acid leaching. The method is characterized in that low-valence sulfide is used as a reducing agent for reduction roasting, lithium is preferentially extracted after reduction, so that the recovery rate of lithium can be improved, but the reduction degree is difficult to control in the reduction roasting of sulfur or sulfide, the situation of oversulfide is easy to occur, nickel cobalt is roasted into low-valence sulfate, and the difficulty in separating lithium from nickel cobalt is increased.
CN 108264068a discloses a method for treating waste lithium ion power battery positive electrode material by electrochemical method, which uses sulfate and/or bisulfate as electrolyte solution to make reaction in an electrolytic device, the essence of the reaction is that lithium in the positive electrode material is leached out by acidic solution decomposed by electrolytic water.
CN 108767354a discloses a method for treating waste lithium ion battery positive electrode material by using ammonium salt roasting process, after ammonium salt roasting, water immersion is adopted, valuable metals of Ni, co, mn and Li are all transferred into solution, and then recovered from solution.
CN 106505270a also discloses a process for treating the anode material of the waste ternary lithium ion battery by an ammonium salt roasting method, after removing aluminum foil from roasting slag after ammonium salt roasting, leaching with acid to solubilize cobalt and lithium, then precipitating cobalt in the form of cobalt hydroxide by a precipitation method, and finally recovering lithium. The method avoids the extraction process and can effectively reduce the loss of lithium, but has limited applicability to waste lithium ion batteries with complex composition and scattered and difficult types.
Therefore, the problem of low recovery rate exists in the prior art when the lithium element in the waste lithium ion battery is recovered. In addition, at present, a method for comprehensively recovering metals such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese, copper, aluminum and the like and graphite in waste lithium ion batteries is lacking, and the method is not effective for treating phosphorus-containing fluorine-containing diaphragms and plastic parts in batteries.
