According to market research prediction, the scrapped amount of the lithium battery for the vehicle in 2020 reaches 32GWh, and the scrapped battery is converted into about 50 ten thousand tons in mass; by 2030, the scrapped amount of the lithium battery for the vehicle can reach 300GWh, and the scrapped amount of the lithium battery is about 300 ten thousand tons. Lithium batteries are mainly divided into lithium iron phosphate batteries, ternary lithium batteries, lithium titanate batteries, lithium manganate batteries and the like according to different positive electrode materials, and the lithium manganate batteries are more and more valued by virtue of the advantages of good rate performance, easier preparation, lower cost and the like. At present, the metal raw materials such as lithium, manganese and the like for preparing the ternary positive electrode material or the lithium manganate positive electrode material are high in price and large in demand. Therefore, the method for extracting metals such as lithium, manganese and the like from the waste lithium batteries can solve the problem of raw material supply and create great benefits for society.
The key link of recycling the lithium manganate anode material is to recycle the lithium manganate anode materialAnd then further preparing related lithium salt and manganese salt.

The method adopts organic acid leaching, has low leaching rate of valuable metals, and has higher treatment difficulty and cost of later-stage wastewater; meanwhile, the extracting agent is used for extracting lithium from the leaching solution containing manganese and lithium, so that the selectivity is poor, the extraction efficiency is low, and the production cost is high. The Chinese patent with the application number of 201811093693.8 utilizes a nanofiltration membrane technology to separate lithium ions in the acidified leaching solution from other cations different from the lithium ions to obtain a lithium-containing solution and a solution containing other cations, and then adopts a reverse osmosis technology to concentrate and enrich the lithium-containing solution and the solution containing other cations respectively; the process has low lithium separation efficiency, needs to consume a large amount of water, and has low lithium enrichment concentration, so that the recovery process is long and the cost is high. The Chinese patent with application number 202110677455.7 puts the pretreated lithium manganate positive electrode material into inorganic acid, and the alpha-MnO is obtained after high-pressure reaction 2 Or beta-MnO 2 Or gamma-MnO 2 Thereby preparing MnO with larger specific surface area and porous structure 2 The product can be further used for battery anode materials and super capacitor electrode materials. Although the method can well realize the recycling of the lithium manganate anode material, the impurity ions are difficult to control in the treatment process, and the performance of the obtained material is not stable enough and is not suitable for wide popularization and use.
In conclusion, the existing recovery process of the waste lithium manganate anode material has the problems of low recovery rate of valuable metals, long process flow, low production efficiency, high recovery treatment cost, low added value of products and the like.
