Description

Method for preparing carbon-based catalyst by recycling conductive agent from waste lithium iron phosphate battery and application of method
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of recycling of waste batteries, in particular to a method for recycling conductive agents from waste lithium iron phosphate batteries and preparing carbon-based catalysts by using the conductive agents.
Background
The upcoming power cell decommissioning has attracted global attention. Early power lithium ion batteries used in electric and hybrid vehicles can be briefly classified into two types, i.e., nickel cobalt lithium manganate ternary material (NCM) and lithium iron phosphate (LFP), according to the positive electrode material. Wherein, nickel, cobalt and lithium are all high-value rare resources. At present, the recovery method of the anode material comprises processes of pyrometallurgy, hydrometallurgy, biological metallurgy and the like, wherein the hydrometallurgy combined separation technology has the advantages of low reaction temperature, low energy consumption and high recovery rate. However, the conductive agent serving as the high-value auxiliary material anode material is not reasonably utilized, and is mainly used as solid waste or plastic filler at present.
The conductive agent is distributed in the gaps between the positive electrode active materials to form a conductive network, so that the conductivity of the positive electrode materials is improved. The common conductive agent mainly comprises traditional conductive agents such as carbon black, conductive graphite and the like and novel conductive agents such as carbon nano tubes, graphene and the like. The conductive agent is generally required to be prepared into a slurry, mixed with the positive electrode material and the binder, and coated on the aluminum foil substrate. The lithium ion battery conductive agent has higher oil absorption value and lower metal impurity content than common carbon black. The novel conductive agent carbon nano tube and graphene are in line-point and surface-point contact with the positive electrode material, which is superior to the traditional conductive carbon black in point-point contact, so that the resistance is low, the required addition amount is small, and the disadvantage is higher price. In recent years, a novel composite conductive paste of conductive carbon black and carbon nanotubes or graphene is paid attention to, so that the cost is effectively reduced, and the electronic conduction is enhanced. It is expected that the recoverable value of the conductive agent will become greater with the rapid increase in the size of retired power cells and the use of new conductive agents.
The recovered conductive agent is contaminated with metal ions, compounds, electrolyte decomposition products, and the like, and the re-purification has technical and cost problems due to multiple charge and discharge, so that it is difficult to re-use the conductive agent in the manufacture of lithium ion batteries. Therefore, the key point of recycling and high-value utilization of the waste conductive agent is to find a proper application direction. At present, more than 90% of nearly 1 ten thousand domestic fuel cell vehicles use imported noble metal catalysts Pt/C and RuO 2 Etc. account for 36% of the total cost of the fuel cell. Therefore, the preparation of the carbon-based catalyst by recycling the conductive agent from the waste lithium iron phosphate anode material has important economic and scientific research values.

Cyclic Voltammogram (CV), time current curve (i-t), rotating disk electrode (RDE, LSV) and rotating ring disk electrode (RRDE, LSV) analyses were performed with an electrochemical workstation of the CHI760 type, with the electrolyte being a 0.1m koh solution, which was used for 30 minutes with oxygen bubbling.
In cyclic voltammogram test, the voltage window is set to be-0.6V-0.2V, and the scanning rate is 20mVs -1 . The test results showed that both the catalyst (C-FP) and the conductive carbon black (SUPERP) exhibited oxygen reduction peaks in CV cycles, but the catalyst (C-FP) had an oxygen reduction peak current density and voltage greater than those of the conductive carbon black (SUPERP), indicating that the oxygen reduction performance of the catalyst (C-FP) was better than that of FIG. 9.
When the rotating disc electrode and the rotating ring disc electrode are tested, the voltage window is set to be-0.6V-0.2V, and the scanning speed is set to be 5mVs -1 The potential of the ring electrode was set to 0.9V. The test results showed that the initial potential of the catalyst (C-FP) was 0.845V, which was 0.81V higher than the initial potential of the conductive carbon black (SUPERP), and the current density of the catalyst (C-FP) was also greater than the conductive carbon black (SUPERP), as shown in FIG. 10. Analysis of the rotating disk electrode and rotating ring disk electrode also showed that the number of electron transfer during ORR for the catalyst (C-FP) was between 3.5 and 3.8, see fig. 11 and 12. It can be seen that ORR on the catalyst (C-FP) is a process approaching four electron transfer, i.e. the reduction of oxygen molecules mainly to water.
The current time curve test set voltage 0.3V, test time is 80000s (22.2 h). The catalyst stability was found to be high in the long-term i-t curve test, and the current decayed only to the initial 73.5% referring to fig. 13.
The test results show that the open circuit voltage of the zinc-air cell using the C-FP catalyst as the positive electrode is 1.44V with reference to fig. 14, the charge-discharge voltage difference is 1.04V, and the cycle can be stabilized over 100h with reference to fig. 15; when the battery is completely discharged, the specific density is 581mAhg according to the mass of the consumed zinc foil Zn -1 Referring to FIG. 16, the power density reached 80mWcm -2 Refer to fig. 17. In contrast, the open circuit voltage of the zinc-air cell using conductive carbon black as the positive electrode was 1.37V with reference to fig. 14, the charge-discharge voltage difference was 1.19V, and only the stable cycle 18h was possible with reference to fig. 15; when the battery is completely discharged, the specific density is 453mAhg according to the mass of the consumed zinc foil Zn -1 Referring to FIG. 16, the power density reached 11mWcm -2 Refer to fig. 17. It can be seen that the recovery guideThe C-FP catalyst prepared by the electric agent is superior to conductive carbon black in strengthening a rechargeable zinc-air battery.
RDE analysis of the SUPER P (FIG. 18) and C-FP (FIG. 19) catalysts was performed at a scan rate of 5mV/s at 400-1600rpm, and then the electron transfer numbers during ORR were calculated to be 1.9 (FIG. 20) and 3.7 (FIG. 21) by the Koutesky-Levich (K-L) equation, respectively. RRDE analysis showed that ORR on SUPERP catalyst (FIG. 22) was a near 2 electron transfer process with a yield of H2O2 higher than 80% and ORR on C-FP catalyst (FIG. 23) was a near 4 electron transfer process with H production in the range of-0.8-0.4V 2 O 2 The yield of (2) is lower than 40%, i.e. O 2 Is mainly reduced to H 2 O。
The ICP test showed that the iron content of the solids was almost unchanged before and after the acid leaching, and the lithium leaching rate was 99.37% (tables 1 and 2).
