With the rapid industrialization of new energy vehicles, the sales volume of the new energy vehicles will be leaped forward, and the reserve volume of the lithium ion power batteries will also increase in geometric progression. Meanwhile, the environmental pollution problem and the reasonable resource recycling problem of the waste lithium ion power battery become the problems which are generally concerned and urgently needed to be solved at present and even at home and abroad in future. The solution of the problem is not only beneficial to the environmental protection, but also more beneficial to the cyclic utilization of resources, and has great practical significance. At present, the main recovered substances in the waste lithium ion battery are copper, aluminum, positive electrode materials and negative electrode materials, wherein a positive plate of the lithium battery is an aluminum foil coated positive electrode material, and a negative plate of the lithium battery is a copper foil coated negative electrode material. In combination with the current situation of domestic and foreign research, the recovery usually comprises three main steps: firstly, performing early-stage discharge treatment and disassembly on the waste battery; second, separation of the electrode material from the current collector; thirdly, the valuable metals are recovered and utilized.

Detailed Description
The waste battery is a waste nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary battery.
Example 1, the total recovery of valuable metal elements in the positive electrode plate of waste power lithium batteries with the assistance of biomass waste corncobs.
The corncobs used in this example were crushed to 200 mesh before use. The specific implementation procedure of this embodiment is as follows:
step 1:
step 1: adding corn cob into volume concentration (V)Sulfuric acid/VWater (W)) Preparing slurry with a liquid-solid ratio of 1.2:1 in 2% dilute sulfuric acid, soaking for 12h at room temperature, placing the slurry in a closed reaction kettle, preserving heat at 105 ℃ for 30min, opening a discharge valve of the reaction kettle, enabling the slurry to be sprayed and exploded from the inside of the reaction kettle to a spraying and explosion bin outside the reaction kettle to obtain slurry after hydrothermal treatment, and filtering to obtain a biomass solution S1 and filter residues;
and step 2, placing the obtained filter residue in a NaOH solution with the concentration of 70 g/L, controlling the liquid-solid ratio to be 2.5:1, then heating the solution system to 280 ℃, preserving the heat for 60min, adjusting the pH value of the obtained filtrate to 4 by using 10 mol/L sulfuric acid after cooling, and obtaining the biomass solution S2.
And a step 2: and separating the current collector aluminum from the waste positive active material to obtain the product metal aluminum powder. The process comprises the following steps:
step 1: the method comprises the following steps of (1) roughly crushing a positive pole piece of a waste 523 type power lithium battery to be not less than 120 meshes (not less than 120 um);
step 2: controlling the liquid-solid ratio to be 3:1, adding the coarsely crushed waste power lithium battery positive pole piece powder into a biomass solution S2 at 60 ℃, and continuously stirring for 60min so as to separate an aluminum current collector from a positive active material, and simultaneously fully dispersing the positive active material in the solution in a powder form.
And 3, pouring the slurry in the previous step into a vibration separation sieve with a 300-mesh screen mesh, separating out the aluminum current collector, and carrying out subsequent reduction leaching on the slurry under the sieve.
And 3, reducing and leaching to enable L i, Ni, Co and Mn in the waste positive electrode to enter the leachate to be recovered, firstly, combining the undersize slurry from which the aluminum current collector is separated with a biomass solution S1, then adding concentrated sulfuric acid into the combined solution according to the proportion of 2 mol/L, heating the solution to 90 ℃, and reacting for 6 hours, so that L i, Ni, Co and Mn in the waste positive electrode enter the leachate to be recovered.
As can be seen from the picture of the pole piece after being processed in fig. 2(a), the surface of the pole piece after being processed in this embodiment is very clean, and there is almost no residual active material, which also indicates that the present invention can make all the active material on the pole piece fall off.
Tests show that 99.5% of Al in the waste positive pole piece is recovered in a metal state, and L i, 99.5% and 98.5% of Mn in the positive pole piece enter the leaching solution respectively.
Comparative example 1:
compared with example 1, the difference of the comparative example is that corncob and the anode pole piece are directly placed in a sulfuric acid solution of 3 mol/L to react for 6 hours at 90 ℃, other parameters of the example are that the mass ratio of the corncob to the anode pole piece is equivalent to that of example 1 and is about 1:0.8, the liquid-solid ratio of 2 mol/L sulfuric acid volume and the sum of the corncob and the anode pole piece mass is equivalent to that of example 1 and is about 2:1, and the test shows that:
① Al in the positive pole piece is not recovered in the form of product, but enters the leachate in the form of 100% of impurity, which increases the difficulty of subsequent impurity removal and may cause loss of valuable elements, because aluminum ions are usually removed in the form of aluminum hydroxide, and the aluminum hydroxide is colloid, so that the difficulty of filtration and the loss caused by excessive high content of attached liquid containing valuable elements in slag are inevitable;
② L i, Ni, Co and Mn leaching efficiencies are 96%, 91%, 88% and 86%, respectively, which are obviously lower than those of example 1. high leaching efficiencies of L i, Ni, Co and Mn can be obtained because the corncobs of example 1 are treated by acid-base combination in the process 1, and the components are fully released and have synergistic and accelerating effects.
Comparative example 2:
compared with example 1, the difference of the comparative example is that glucose and the anode pole piece are directly placed in a sulfuric acid solution of 3 mol/L to react for 6 hours at 90 ℃, other parameters of the example are that the mass ratio of the glucose to the anode pole piece is equivalent to that of example 1 and is about 1:0.8, the liquid-solid ratio of 2 mol/L sulfuric acid volume and the sum of the mass of the glucose and the anode pole piece is also equivalent to that of example 1 and is about 2:1, and tests show that:
① Al in the positive pole piece is not recovered in the form of product, but enters the leachate in the form of 100% of impurity, which increases the difficulty of subsequent impurity removal and may cause loss of valuable elements, because aluminum ions are usually removed in the form of aluminum hydroxide, and the aluminum hydroxide is colloid, so that the difficulty of filtration and the loss caused by excessive high content of attached liquid containing valuable elements in slag are inevitable;
② L i, Ni, Co and Mn have leaching efficiencies of 97%, 95%, 92% and 90%, respectively, although the list is significantly lower than example 1 above comparative example 1.
Comparative example 3:
the purpose of this comparative example was to examine whether a single organic acid could completely shed the positive active material on the current collector, and therefore a 5mm size positive plate was selected and placed in step 2 of example 1 for treatment. Organic acids examined are formic acid, acetic acid or malonic acid. After the treatment, it was found that a large amount of the positive electrode material remained on the aluminum current collector. Fig. 2(b) is a photograph of the electrode plate treated with a single formic acid, which shows that the positive active material on the electrode plate is difficult to completely separate due to the single organic acid treatment.
Comparative example 4:
the purpose of this comparative example was to investigate whether a single organic acid could ensure that the aluminium was not leached. This comparative example was conducted in the same manner as example 1 except that the solution S2 in the step 2 was replaced with formic acid. The test result shows that:
① about 8% of the aluminum in the aluminum current collector was dissolved into the leachate and it was found that some positive active material remained on the separated aluminum current collector;
② L i, Ni, Co and Mn were leached with efficiencies of 95%, 90%, 87% and 86%, respectively, which were significantly lower than those of example 1, for reasons related to the residual active species on the aluminum current collector.
As can be seen from the above examples and the corresponding examples, with the assistance of the biomass waste, the present invention has the advantages of almost complete recovery of the aluminum current collector in a metallic state and efficient leaching of valuable elements in the positive electrode plate.
