Description

Method for recycling polyvinylidene fluoride and lithium cobaltate positive electrode material from waste lithium cobaltate batteries
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of lithium battery positive electrode material recovery, and particularly relates to a method for recovering polyvinylidene fluoride from waste lithium cobalt oxide batteries and regenerating lithium cobalt oxide positive electrode materials.
Background
Lithium ion batteries are important in overcoming the inherent intermittency of renewable energy sources and promoting the development of portable electronic devices, among which LiCoO 2 (LCO) has a high volumetric energy density and a high charge cut-off voltage, and is still dominant in the field of portable electronic devices, although it is expensive. However, with the rapid growth and short term renewal of electronic product consumption, a large number of spent LCO batteries are scrapped every year. On one hand, the waste LCO battery is rich in valuable metals Li and Co, and can create huge economic value by effectively recycling, thereby realizing the sustainable development of strategic resources. On the other hand, toxic electrolytes and heavy metals in these spent lithium ion batteries pose serious threats to human environment and health if not properly handled. Therefore, a clean and efficient waste LCO battery recycling way is sought, and the purpose of changing waste into valuable is imperative.
At present, the recovery process of the waste lithium ion battery can be divided into pyrometallurgical, hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical combined hydrometallurgical processes. The pyrometallurgy has the advantages of high efficiency, large treatment capacity, easy scale production and the like, and is widely applied in industry. However, difficulties with high energy consumption, high emissions, difficulty in recovering lithium from slag, etc., remain a current challenge for such technologies. Hydrometallurgy is the mainstream waste battery recycling process in China at present. In the hydrometallurgical process, LiCoO is prepared by using a large amount of strong acid to match with a reducing agent 2 Reduction ofIs Li + And Co 2+ Ions, in order to achieve the desired leaching efficiency, tend to keep the solid-to-liquid ratio at a low level during leaching. Subsequently, the Li is separated stepwise by solvent extraction + And Co 2+ . Thereby generating a large amount of acidic wastewater and causing additional cost for sewage treatment.
For example, chinese patent application No. CN 106868371B discloses a method for recovering a spent lithium cobalt oxide positive electrode material, which comprises removing an aluminum foil from the spent lithium cobalt oxide positive electrode material to obtain a spent lithium cobalt oxide positive electrode material, crushing the spent lithium cobalt oxide positive electrode material, adding hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid to the spent lithium cobalt oxide positive electrode material using ferrous sulfate as a reducing agent to perform a chemical reaction, adding an inorganic base to neutralize the residual acid after the reaction is completed, and precipitating Fe 3+ . And filtering and separating the precipitate and the filtrate, and continuously adding inorganic base into the filtrate to adjust the pH value to 10.0-14.0 to precipitate cobalt, thereby separating lithium and cobalt. The process is complex, uses a large amount of acid and alkali, and has high cost and no environmental friendliness. Chinese patent application No. CN 106505270A discloses a method for recovering lithium and cobalt from waste lithium ion batteries, in which the waste pole pieces obtained by discharge disassembly are mixed with ammonium sulfate, high-temperature roasting is performed to obtain reduction roasting slag, vibration screening is performed to remove aluminum foil to obtain reduction slag containing lithium and cobalt, then sulfuric acid is used for leaching, sodium carbonate is used for adjusting the pH of the solution, and the precipitate is removed by filtering; adding sodium hydroxide into the obtained lithium and cobalt sulfate precipitate to obtain cobalt hydroxide precipitate, and reducing and roasting the cobalt hydroxide to obtain metal cobalt powder; and adding excessive lithium precipitating agent into the residual lithium-containing solution to obtain a lithium salt product. However, in the process, a large amount of ammonia gas is generated by decomposing ammonium sulfate, and the threat to environmental pollution is caused. The Chinese patent application with the application number of CN110079671A discloses a method for utilizing a gaseous reducing agent (H) 2 Natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, coal gas and the like) to reduce and roast the crushed materials of the waste lithium ion batteries so as to recover valuable elements. However, in the process, a large amount of flammable and explosive gas is used at high temperature, so that great potential safety hazard is caused. The Chinese patent application with the application number of CN 111430829B discloses a method for regenerating and synthesizing a positive electrode material of a waste lithium ion battery by using a biomass material (corn stalks, rapeseed cakes, chaff, straws, sawdust, sorghum vinasse and the like) to reduce and roast the positive electrode materialA nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary cathode material. However, in the process, impurity elements such as Na, K, Ca, Mg and the like are introduced by using the biomass material, so that the difficulty in recovering high-purity valuable components is increased, and the anode material with excellent electrochemical performance is difficult to regenerate. Chinese patent application No. CN 111430829B discloses a method for recovering lithium from waste lithium ion batteries by using graphite negative electrode powder and the like as a reducing agent. However, the process is only limited to recycling lithium in the waste lithium ion battery, and does not fully utilize valuable resources to realize closed cycle use of resources.
