The Ni-Co alloy can be used as a raw material for smelting rare earth hydrogen storage alloy or other alloys, but the rare earth oxide slag can be used as the raw material for smelting rare earth silicon iron alloy or the raw material for further extracting the rare earth, thereby comprehensively recycling the rare earth nickel-metal hydride battery waste.

Description

Comprehensive reutilization method based on selective oxidation/reductive rare earth nickel metal hydride battery waste material
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of comprehensive reutilization method, belong to the rare earth metallurgy technical field, especially rare earth and Non-ferrous Metallurgy reclamation of waste materials aspect based on selective oxidation/reductive rare earth nickel metal hydride battery waste material.
Technical background
The application of rare earth nickel metal hydride battery is more and more wider, in all kinds of portable electronics, electromobile, Moped Scooter field very strong suitability is arranged.The nickel metal hydride battery development is rapid, but also is accompanied by the problem of waste material simultaneously.(1) in the smelting process of negative material alloy, owing to oxidation, scorification effect, formed a certain amount of waste residue, the waste residue rate accounts for about 2% of alloy mass.(2) nickel metal hydride battery is in long charge and discharge cycles process, can produce anodal and the negative pole powder that gives up because efflorescence and oxidation were lost efficacy gradually.The main component of rare earth nickel metal hydride battery waste residue, useless powder is Ni, Co and RE, is the noble metal element, and its comprehensive reutilization becomes the problem that must face.
The recycling of the useless powder of rare earth nickel metal hydride battery has patent and bibliographical information.Germany Patent document DE6110433 and Japanese documentation JP2639494, JP8157974 propose to adopt the chemical technology of complexity such as acid-alkali treatment, extraction and reextraction, each element of alloy is separated, the isolating product of art breading is the oxide compound of each element, as continue on for producing metal or alloy, must corresponding metallurgical technology.So complex process, the cost height.China Nankai University has reported the method that chemical treatment and smelting combine, after the acid of battery cathode powder is dissolved and is learned processing, and compressing tablet, melt back is 3~4 times in non-consumable arc furnace, and the zone of oxidation of removing melting ingot casting surface obtains alloy.Technical process is short, but only adopts simple acid pasting separating oxide, and the oxide compound separation rate is low, can only adopt the high arc temperature melting to separate a large amount of oxide compounds, and the cost height is difficult to industrialization.
The recycling report of hydrogen storage alloy waste residue is less.University Of Science and Technology of the Inner Mongol has reported the method for magnetic separation-melting slagging-off, and its shortcoming is: magnetic separation separating oxide weak effect influences follow-up melting deslagging process.Patent " the AB that the patented invention philtrum is asked 5The method that type lanthanon hydrogen storage alloy melting waste slag is recycled " (publication number CN101748279) then be only limited to the recovery melting waste slag, RE-M alloy (RE:La, Ce, Pr, the Nd of recovery; M:Ni, Co, Mn, Al etc.) component is many, and composition has fluctuation, is that raw material is smelted AB with the RE-M alloy that reclaims 5The type alloy, not too convenient during use.
