Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of recycling of waste lead paste of lead-acid batteries, and particularly relates to an activation method of waste lead paste of lead-acid batteries.
Background
The waste lead plaster is a main component separated from the lead-acid storage battery, and because the waste lead plaster contains a large amount of sulfate and lead oxides with different valence states, the recycling of the lead plaster is generally a difficult point requiring intensive research on recycling of the waste lead-acid storage battery.
For the recovery of waste lead plaster, the metal lead is generally recovered by adopting a pyrometallurgical technique, a hydrometallurgical technique, a solid-phase electrolysis process and the like at present. Wherein pyrometallurgical techniques may produce SO2Secondary pollution such as high-temperature lead dust and the like, high energy consumption and low utilization rate; the wet smelting technique is that waste lead paste is desulfurized by alkali metal carbonate, and PbO is desulfurized by reducing agent2After being converted into PbO, lead is transferred into lead-rich electrolyte under the action of a leaching agent, and then electrolytic deposition is carried out to obtain refined lead; the electrolytic deposition technology avoids the high-temperature condition of the pyrogenic recovery technology from generating no smoke dust and SO2But the energy consumption is still quite high, and the power consumption of 1kg lead is about 12 k.Wh which is higher than that of a pyrometallurgical method; the solid phase electrolysis process adopts NaOH solution as electrolyte, a stainless steel plate with a folding groove on the surface is used as a cathode and an anode, lead plaster slurried by 8mol/L NaOH solution is filled in the folding groove, and a lead-containing compound is obtained from a cathode during electrification and electrolysis and is directly reduced into metallic lead.
In addition, the process of pre-desulfurization and low-temperature smelting of the waste lead paste is an artificial lead clean recovery process, so that the prior art generally starts from waste lead paste desulfurization (such as Xuxin 'utilization of the regenerated lead paste in the production process of lead-acid storage batteries' (J. Guangdong chemical industry 2015,4(42): 31-34; and such as bamboo waves and other 'desulfurization experiments by the internal circulation particle grinding method of the waste lead paste' (J. industrial safety and environmental protection 2018,2(44): 93-96), and such as Taiwan patent with the publication number of TW 201541685A), the next step of treatment is carried out after the desulfurization pretreatment is carried out, so that the energy consumption is increased, and secondary pollution is also generated in the desulfurization process.
In the prior art, the activation method mainly comprises five methods, namely a heavy current charging method, a negative pulse charging method, a method of adding an active agent (such as a patent with the application publication number of CN 105870530A), a high-frequency pulse charging method and a composite pulse resonance method, wherein the heavy current charging method can only obtain temporary effect when the vulcanization is eliminated, and can aggravate water loss and softening of the positive plate; the negative pulse charging method has no obvious effect, and the method for adding the active agent has high cost and short service life after activation; the high-frequency pulse charging method has long charging time, low working efficiency and poor effect when the vulcanization is serious; the composite pulse resonance method has high cost and complex technology and equipment, and the five activation methods are all used for activating and repairing the whole system of the vulcanized and damaged finished battery, are the activation and repair completed under the common cooperation of various components in the battery, and are not used for activating the components of the waste lead paste independently.

Specifically, for the control of the grinding fineness, the invention realizes the following by controlling the adding amount of the waste lead plaster and the grinding time length:
taking a grinder with power of 30KW for grinding the waste lead paste powder as an example, 0.4 ton of paste powder is put into the grinder for 1 hour, the particle diameter of the paste powder before grinding is 5-10 μm, and the particle diameter after grinding is 1-3 μm. The particle size will vary with the grinding time, but the particle size will not change significantly after grinding with an increase of grinding time longer than 1 hour, and the specific grinding time for grinding paste powder with an average particle size of 10 μm will give the average particle size of the paste powder shown in Table 2.

TABLE 3 content of lead dioxide after applying activated anode lead plaster powder of different particle diameters to anode lead plaster
Figure BDA0002257721270000071
As can be seen from Table 3, the particle size of the activated positive electrode lead paste powder is less than 6 μm to meet the use requirement.
In addition, the activated anode lead plaster powder is used for preparing anode lead plaster, and PbO can be controlled2Crystal form of PbO2From α -PbO2And β -PbO2Composition α -PbO2Small charge capacity but large volume, ratio β -PbO2Hard and mainly plays a supporting role, β -PbO2Large charge capacity but small volume, ratio of α -PbO2The lead paste of the soft storage battery mainly plays a role of charging and the failure storage battery is softened, part of the lead paste falls off, and the lead paste α -PbO is softened2The content is low, when the lead plaster is recycled for producing a new storage battery, the formula of the lead plaster should be changed, the temperature of the lead plaster should be strictly controlled, the lead plaster should be reprogrammed to be a charging program, and finally α -PbO is realized2Ratio β -PbO2The battery capacity is between 0.7 and 0.8, so that the performance indexes of the initial capacity, the cycle service life and the like of the storage battery meet the national standard requirements.
Therefore, when the activated positive lead plaster powder is used for preparing positive lead plaster, 0.1-0.15% of Sb is added2O3As a crystal modifier, in the formation and charging process of the storage battery manufacture, antimony ions play an electrocatalysis role in the basic lead sulfate conversion process, the formation resistance is reduced, the formation temperature is reduced, and β -PbO is effectively reduced2And (4) generating. In addition, antimony ions can also improve PbO during charging of the storage battery2The electronic conductive property of the crystal gel area stabilizes the crystal gel concentration during the reaction of the crystal gel area, thereby improving the conductivity of the electrode in the later reaction stage and stabilizing α -PbO2The ratio of (a) to (b).

Specifically, the formation charging procedure is as follows: the whole process is divided into 11 stages according to formation charging time, each stage is 2 hours, the charging current of the first stage is 30% I, the charging current of the middle three stages is 100% I, and the charging current of the rest stages is 80% I. The other stages except the first stage all need to discharge once in 20 minutes, the discharge current is 200% I, and the discharge time is 1 min. The current I is calculated from the plate area and the number of positive plates, i.e. the charging current I is equal to, the positive plates are high by wide 2 (both sides) by 10mA/cm2, the number of positive plates is e.g. 6-QW-100Ah cells are assembled with plates of height 100mm and width 142mm, 7 positive plates per cell, 8 negative plates for 6 cells, 12V accumulator.

Positive plate: PbO2The content is 87.9%, the positive grid is black, and the white substance on the edge is lead paste which is not completely reacted, as shown in figure 4.
Negative plate: the PbO content was 8.38%, the Pb content was 91.62%, and the negative plate was gray as shown in fig. 5, indicating that the waste lead paste mass had been converted to spongy lead. But the pole plate needs to be dried during inspection, and partial spongy lead is converted into PbO during drying.
Therefore, the waste lead paste contains PbO and PbO2、PbSO4Wherein PbSO4Because the crystal grains are agglomerated and enlarged in the use process of the storage battery, the crystal grains do not participate in charge-discharge cyclic reaction of the storage battery any more, namely the activity is lost. The method can refine the large-particle lead sulfate in the waste lead plaster through physical crushing treatment to have charging and discharging activity, so that the solid phase electrolysis efficiency is improved, and the conversion efficiency is improved. And after the waste lead paste powder is activated, PbO and PbO2、PbSO4Lead ions in the lead paste can be separated out at the cathode under a weak acid medium, and the waste lead paste is activated to form solid-phase electrolysis of the acid medium.
