- the above lithium can maximize the Li recovery rate during the Li smelting process by satisfying the above range. If it exceeds the upper limit of the above range, there is a problem of reduced Ni and Co recovery rates, and if it exceeds the lower limit of the above range, there is a problem of increased process costs due to reduced Li recovery rates during the Li smelting process.

- LiAlO 2 (s) + 2Li 2 CO 3 (s) Li 5 AlO 4 + 2CO 2 (g) reaction generates Li 5 AlO 4 , but the LiF (g) vaporization reaction is promoted, so that when performed in the above-mentioned range, the yield of lithium can be improved.
- the lower limit of the above range is exceeded, the sintering and reduction of the alloy elements do not proceed smoothly, and a stabilized lithium-containing compound is not formed, which makes it difficult to recover the stabilized compound when recovering the lithium compound in the future.
- the step of magnetically separating the above-mentioned high-temperature heat-treated product can separate the first magnetic body having magnetism and the first non-magnetic body having non-magnetism by magnetically separating the above-mentioned product.
- Magnetic separation can separate particles through contact with the magnetic body by utilizing the magnetic body, and various types of magnetic separation methods can be applied.

- the magnetic separation step can be performed in a magnetic strength range of 1,000 to 5,000 Gauss. Specifically, the magnetic separation step can be performed in a magnetic strength range of 2,000 to 3,000 Gauss.
- the magnetic separation step is performed within the above magnetic strength range, there is an advantage in that valuable metals can be separated efficiently. If the magnetic strength range exceeds the upper limit of the above-mentioned range, even a trace amount of valuable metal is recovered, so the recovery rate increases, but the grade of the recovered valuable metal is lowered and the amount of impurities such as graphite and copper increases, so there is a problem that the process efficiency in the next process, the wet smelting process, is lowered and the processing cost increases. If the magnetic strength range exceeds the lower limit of the above-mentioned range, there is a problem that the recovery rate of valuable metals is lowered, so that the loss of Ni, Co, and Mn increases.

In this way, not only can the valuable metal recovery alloy be recovered from the valuable metal recovery composition, but also the lithium compound can be separated at the same time, so that the lithium recovery rate is high and the amount of lithium lost can be reduced.
- the pulverizing step uses equipment that pulverizes using a shear force in the form of a vertical attrition mill, and the RPM of the attrition mill for the vertical attrition mill can be performed in a shear force range of 1 to 5 m/sec based on the Tip Speed. Specifically, the pulverizing step can be performed in a shear force range of 2 to 3 m/sec based on the Tip Speed. Since the pulverizing step is performed in the above-described shear force range, the NCM alloy, which is the core portion of the first magnetic body, is not pulverized, and only the compound including lithium, which is the shell portion disposed on the core portion, can be pulverized into fine powder.
- Tip Speed Pi ⁇ Impeller Diameter ⁇ RPM/100
- the shear force exceeds the upper limit of the aforementioned range, there is a problem that after the shell portion of the first magnetic body is separated, the magnetic body core portion inside is pulverized, and since the core portion is a ductile metal, the spherical particles grow into a plate shape during rolling and are then pulverized into smaller particles again. At this time, there is a problem of reduced recovery rate in the process of separating the magnetic body of the core portion and the lithium compound of the shell portion using particle size. If the shear force exceeds the lower limit of the aforementioned range, there is a problem that the lithium compound of the shell portion is not pulverized and is recovered again together with the magnetic body of the core portion.
- the crushing step can be performed for 20 to 80 minutes. Specifically, the crushing step can be performed for 30 to 60 minutes. As the crushing step is performed within the above-described range, the recovery rate of valuable metals such as Ni, Co, Mn, and Li can be increased.
- the magnetic body including the core part's magnetic body and the lithium compound of the shell part is excessively crushed, and rolling is performed into a plate shape due to ductility, and the plate-shaped particles are continuously over-pulverized and split again into fine particles, so that the effect of the magnetic force is insufficient in additional magnetic separation.
- the lower limit of the above-mentioned range is exceeded, there is a problem that the shell part including the lithium compound is not easily separated from the magnetic body of the core-shell structure.
- a step of further separating by any one of particle size separation, flotation, and magnetic separation may be included.
- the flotation separation is a method of separating particles by considering the difference in specific gravity of each material, and for example, the particles may be separated based on the size of the specific gravity of the particles corresponding to the specific solvent by utilizing a specific solvent.
- the valuable metal alloy is separated into particles that are elongated due to the ductile nature of the metal and have a large particle size, and the compound containing lithium can be pulverized into a fine powder form with a small particle size.

- the copper current collector may melt and exist in a liquid state, thereby performing the function of agglomerating the reduced valuable metals.
- the copper current collector and the aluminum current collector may perform a partial reduction reaction with the positive electrode oxide and the remainder may react with lithium, so that a compound in the form of an oxide containing lithium may remain.

- a composition including a lithium-containing compound having a high lithium content and an excellent lithium recovery rate can be satisfied.

- the content of lithium aluminum oxide may include 45.0 to 97.0 wt% based on 100 wt% of the valuable metal recovery composition. Specifically, the content may be 70 to 90 wt%.
- the content of the lithium aluminum oxide exceeds the upper limit of the above-mentioned range, there is a problem that highly water-soluble lithium hydroxide, lithium carbonate, lithium fluoride, etc. dissolve in large quantities in water during the sorting process. If the content of the lithium aluminum oxide exceeds the lower limit of the above-mentioned range, it means that most of the lithium compounds are recovered in the form of LiAlO 2 with low water solubility, which means that highly water-soluble lithium compounds dissolve in water during the sorting process, and this causes a problem that lithium must be recovered again from the water used during the sorting process.
- the lithium compound may include a lithium and silicon-containing oxide.
- the content of the lithium and silicon-containing oxide may include 2 to 30 wt% based on 100 wt% of the valuable metal recovery composition. Specifically, it may include 10 to 25 wt%.

- the content of the lithium and silicon-containing oxides exceeds the upper limit of the above-mentioned range, there is a problem that the productivity of the reactor decreases and the energy cost increases because it means that it has been exposed to the maximum temperature for a long time during the high-temperature reduction reaction. If the content of the lithium and silicon-containing oxides exceeds the lower limit of the above-mentioned range, there is a problem that the recovery rate of lithium decreases because there is insufficient heat energy for lithium to react with aluminum or silicon to produce lithium compounds such as lithium aluminate, or the temperature of the reactor is too high, so that lithium is volatilized and removed.
- the metal recovery composition can have no more than 10 wt % of silicon (Si), based on 100 wt % of the metal recovery composition.
- the silicon can be no more than 1.0 wt %, and more specifically, no more than 0.5 wt %.

- Li 2 CO 3 may be included in an amount of 30% or less based on 100 wt% of the entire composition.
- the Li 2 CO 3 may be included in an amount of 15.0% or less, more specifically, 5% or less.

- the LiF may be included in an amount of 6.5 to 24.0 wt%, more specifically, 6.5 to 15 wt% or less based on 100 wt% of the entire composition.
- LiF exceeds the upper limit of the above-mentioned range, there is a problem that the pH control is difficult due to the mixing of sulfate ions and fluoride ions during sulfuric acid leaching, thereby reducing the Li recovery rate. If the LiF exceeds the lower limit of the above-mentioned range, there may be a problem that the leaching process time is delayed because Li 2 SiO 3 , Li 4 SiO 4 , and Li 2 Si 2 O 5 , etc. increase, making sulfuric acid leaching difficult.
- the total content of Li 2 CO 3 and LiF may be 50% or less, based on 100 wt% of the entire composition. Specifically, the total content may be 0.5 to 50%, and more specifically, the content may be 0.5 to 30% or less.
- the total content exceeds the upper limit of the above-mentioned range, a large amount of compounds that are difficult to recover due to water solubility problems are generated, which makes it difficult to recover Li. If the total content exceeds the lower limit of the above-mentioned range, the compounds such as Li 2 SiO 3 , Li 4 SiO 4 , and Li 2 Si 2 O 5 increase, making sulfuric acid leaching difficult, which causes a problem in that the leaching process time is delayed.
- Li 3 PO 4 may be included at 10 wt% or less, based on 100 wt% of the entire composition.
- the Li 3 PO 4 may be included at 5 wt%, specifically, 3 wt% or less, and more specifically, 0.1 to 0.7 wt %, based on 100 wt% of the entire composition.

- the spent battery is frozen at -30°C or lower and then crushed, or after being discharged under salt water discharge or electric discharge conditions, the spent battery is crushed using a shredder device under atmospheric or inert gas conditions so that the longest length or width becomes 100 mm or less.
- the crushed battery waste was heat-treated at 1,300° C. under an oxygen partial pressure condition of 0.5% to perform a reduction process.
- a composition for recovering valuable metals comprising a core part including valuable metals as described above and a shell part including a compound containing lithium on the core part, was produced.
- Table 1 below shows the components and contents of the composition for recovering valuable metals produced by the above-described method.
- composition for recovering precious metals that had undergone a high-temperature reduction process in the first magnetic separation step was separated into magnetic and non-magnetic substances using a magnetic separator having a magnetic strength of 3000 Gauss.

- Table 3 below shows the components and contents of the results obtained through the flotation selection process.

- the C content of the sediment remaining in Under Flow (U/F) was 5.75%, and it can be seen that most of the hydrophobic C was recovered as floating matter.
- looking at the lithium content ratio of the floating matter and sediment it can be seen that most of the lithium did not float but remained in the sediment, so that C and lithium could be efficiently separated through flotation.
- the magnetic material that has gone through the magnetic separation step is pulverized using Attrition Mill equipment, which is a vertical stirring mill, at 500 rpm, an impeller tip speed of 2.8 m/sec, a pulverization time of 60 minutes, and a soil content of 30% by weight.

- the magnetic material is composed of a core part including a valuable metal and a shell part including a compound including lithium arranged on the core part, and it was confirmed that the core part and the shell part are separated during the pulverization process of the composition for recovering valuable metal.
- Table 5 shows the components and contents of the resultant product obtained by separating the magnetic material including the core portion and the shell portion and separating the resultant product according to particle size.
- the shell part in the form of oxides is pulverized during the pulverization process, and the core part, which has ductility, is continuously pulverized inside the pulverizer and rolled into a plate shape, causing the particle size to increase and the thickness to decrease rather than the initial particle size.
- the shell part is brittle in the form of oxides, the pulverization continues as the pulverization time increases, causing the particle size to decrease. 5.
- Experimental Example 4_1 which has gone through a crushing step, can be separated by particle size separation using the difference in the crushing characteristics of the core alloy and the shell oxide compound, but it is more preferable to perform a secondary separation through a magnetic selection process with a magnetic strength of 3000 Gauss using the magnetic property of the core alloy. In this case, if separation is performed using magnetic selection, the recovery rate of valuable metals in the core can be further increased compared to particle size separation. If particle size separation is applied, the separation should be performed using a mesh having a mesh size of 75 ⁇ m or 45 ⁇ m, and at this time, the coarse particles are recovered as the NCM alloy part and the fine particles are recovered as Li oxide.
- the non-magnetic material containing Li, and the graphite separated through the above-described steps were reduced to a moisture content of 30% using a drum-type dehydrator or a centrifugal dehydrator, and then dried to a moisture content of 5% or less through a drying step using hot air at 100 to 200°C, and then recovered.
- Table 5 below shows the components and contents of the final product recovered through the steps described above.
- the valuable metal alloy containing Ni, Co, and Mn as main components can be recovered from the magnetic body separated through the magnetic separation, pulverization, and magnetic separation steps, as in Experimental Example 4_1.

- Table 7 shows the results of separating the crushed product into magnetic and non-magnetic materials using a 3000 Gauss magnetic separator after the first magnetic separation and crushing of the magnetic material.
- a vertical stirring ball mill (Attrition Mill) was used as the pulverizer, and the pulverization conditions were RPM 500 (Tip Speed 2.65 m/sec), pulverization container size 1 L, solid content concentration 30%, pulverization time 0 to 90 minutes, and magnetic and non-magnetic bodies were analyzed according to pulverization time.
- the lithium compound when it exceeds 60 minutes and exceeds 90 minutes, the lithium compound is mostly pulverized and recovered at a high recovery rate of 91% non-magnetically, but the NCM alloy part, which is the core part, is continuously over-pulverized after the shell part is completely removed and rolled into a plate shape due to ductility, and the plate-shaped particles are split again into fine particles due to continuous over-pulverization, and there is a problem that the particles are excessively fine and the influence of the magnetic force on a single particle is minimal. Accordingly, the finely divided NCM alloy part cannot be recovered as a magnetic body even if it is magnetic during magnetic separation, and this results in a decrease again to 85% or less, which is the recovery rate of Ni, Co, and Mn.
