Background technology
Nickel metal hydride battery is the widely used battery of a class, and this battery will produce a large amount of refuse batteries after using and scrapping.Because this class battery contains plurality of heavy metal,, will produce very big direct and potential hazard to environment if abandon into environment.Nickel-hydrogen battery negative pole material is mainly nickeliferous, cobalt and rare earth, and three's total content is up to 85~97%, has very much a recovery value.The technology that reclaims at present nickel, cobalt and rare earth from the waste nickel-metal hydrogen batteries negative material mainly contains thermal process and wet processing.The product that thermal process obtains is an alloy material, nickel, cobalt and rare earth that very difficult acquisition is purer.Wet processing becomes more readily available purer nickel, cobalt and rare earth.Leaching is a requisite process in the wet processing.The leaching method of waste nickel-metal hydrogen batteries negative material mainly contains salt acid leaching process, sulfuric acid leaching and nitric acid lixiviation process at present.The salt acid leaching process, equipment corrosion is big, the big and contaminate environment of acid mist generation.The expensive oxygenant of sulfuric acid leaching consumption (as hydrogen peroxide etc.).The nitric acid consumption of nitric acid lixiviation process is big, and can produce a large amount of oxynitride, contaminate environment.The development equipment corrosion is little, cost is low, the leaching method of the waste nickel-metal hydrogen batteries negative material of basic non-environmental-pollution has big practical value.
Summary of the invention
Problem at present waste nickel-metal hydrogen batteries negative material leaching, it is low to the objective of the invention is to seek a kind of nitric acid consumption, the leaching method of the waste nickel-metal hydrogen batteries negative material that basic nitrogenfree oxide pollutes, it is characterized in that and from waste nickel-metal hydrogen batteries, (to comprise by isolated negative material by elementary negative material artificial or that mechanical separation goes out, the negative pole powder body material that elementary negative material obtains through broken and ball milling or rod milling, the more purified negative material that elementary negative material or negative pole powder body material obtain through pre-treatment such as alkali cleaning or roastings) put into withstand voltage and the corrosive of anti-nitric acid container, sealed vessel then, and nitric acid pumped into this container, feed industrial pure oxygen and carry out the leaching of waste nickel-metal hydrogen batteries negative material, carry out liquid-solid separation after leaching end, obtain required infusion solution.Extraction temperature is 20~100 ℃, and leaching pressure is 0.05~0.5MPa, and the nitric acid starting point concentration of leaching is 1~6mol/L, and extraction time is 1~5 hour, and leaching process stirs, stirring velocity 30~100r/min.The nitric acid add-on is in the negative material that adds reaction vessel all 101~130% of the nitric acid theoretical consumption that leaches of metals.
The object of the present invention is achieved like this: under the condition of airtight pressurization and the existence of industrial pure oxygen, nitric acid leaches the waste nickel-metal hydrogen batteries negative material when (each metallic element in the material is metal form substantially), and following chemical reaction takes place the process that metallic nickel generates the inferior nickel of nitric acid:
Ni+4HNO 3=Ni(NO 3) 2+2NO 2+2H 2O
3Ni+8HNO 3=3Ni(NO 3) 2+2NO+4H 2O

Total reaction is:
4Ni+12HNO 3+3O 2=4Ni(NO 3) 3+6H 2O
Under the condition of airtight pressurization and the existence of industrial pure oxygen, when nitric acid leached the waste nickel-metal hydrogen batteries negative material, following chemical reaction took place in the process that cobalt metal generates Xiao Suangu:
Co+4HNO 3=Co(NO 3) 2+2NO 2+2H 2O
3Co+8HNO 3=3Co(NO 3) 2+2NO+4H 2O
2NO+O 2=2NO 2
3NO 2+H 2O=2HNO 3+NO
Total reaction is:
2Co+4HNO 3+O 2=2Co(NO 3) 2+2H 2O
Under the condition of airtight pressurization and the existence of industrial pure oxygen, when nitric acid leached the waste nickel-metal hydrogen batteries negative material, following chemical reaction took place in the process that rare earth generates rare earth nitrate:
Re+4HNO 3=Re(NO 3) 2+2NO 2+2H 2O
3Re+8HNO 3=3Re(NO 3) 2+2NO+4H 2O
Re+6HNO 3=Re(NO 3) 3+3NO 2+3H 2O
