As a reference, the waste ternary lithium battery mainly refers to a waste nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary lithium battery, and the battery black powder can be obtained by discharging, crushing, cracking and sieving the waste ternary lithium battery to be treated. Illustratively, the main components in the battery black powder include ternary positive electrode material, graphite negative electrode material, conductive agent, binder and a small amount of current collector (such as copper foil, aluminum foil, etc.).
The reducing agent used in the present disclosure may include, by way of example and not limitation, at least one of pulverized coal, carbon powder, and an organic carbon reducing agent.

On the premise, most of nickel and cobalt in the battery black powder can be reduced into magnetic nickel simple substance and cobalt simple substance by carrying out reduction roasting (first roasting) on the battery black powder and a reducing agent, so that the subsequent magnetic separation is facilitated to obtain magnetic metal substances, non-magnetic graphite and other substances, and the nickel and cobalt are prevented from influencing the separation of the subsequent graphite. And the lithium contained in the battery black powder can form lithium-containing carbonate in the first roasting process, so that the lithium is effectively leached in the lithium extraction treatment, and the influence of the lithium on the separation of the subsequent graphite is avoided. It should be noted that manganese is still in the form of oxides at the first firing temperature and is not reduced to elemental form.
In the present disclosure, the lithium extraction process includes: and leaching the lithium from the first roasting product by water, and leaching the lithium from the solid obtained by leaching the lithium by acid.
For reference, in the water leaching lithium process, the mass ratio of the first baked product to water may be 1:3-1:15, such as 1:3, 1:4, 1:5, 1:6, 1:7, 1:8, 1:9, 1:10, 1:11, 1:12, 1:13, 1:14, or 1:15, etc., and may be any other value in the range of 1:3-1:15.

By leaching lithium according to the conditions, most of lithium can be leached, and the purity of the leached lithium is high, so that the subsequent impurity removal cost is reduced.

By acid leaching lithium under the above conditions, lithium remaining in the solid obtained by water leaching can be further effectively extracted.
On the premise, by leaching lithium with water, most of lithium can be selectively leached, and nickel, cobalt and manganese cannot be leached in the process; the lithium which is not leached in the water leaching lithium stage can be further leached by acid leaching lithium (nickel, cobalt and manganese are not leached basically because the concentration of acid used in the acid leaching process is low). The lithium is extracted by the mode of leaching with water and then leaching with acid, so that a higher lithium leaching rate can be obtained.
In the present disclosure, the lithium extraction slag obtained by the lithium extraction treatment is the leaching slag obtained by the acid leaching lithium treatment, and the leaching slag includes magnetic materials (such as nickel, cobalt, manganese, etc.) and non-magnetic materials (such as graphite and non-magnetic oxides of nickel, cobalt, manganese, etc.).
As a reference, the magnetic separation of the above-mentioned magnetic material and non-magnetic material may be performed in a magnetic separation column.
The magnetic field strength used for the magnetic separation may be 2000GS-12000GS, such as 2000GS, 4000GS, 6000GS, 8000GS, 10000GS or 12000GS, or any other value within the range of 2000GS-12000 GS. In some embodiments, the magnetic field strength used for the magnetic separation is 10000GS.
The magnetic separation is carried out in the presence of water, namely, the leaching slag obtained after acid leaching lithium treatment is mixed with water and then subjected to magnetic separation. Illustratively, the amount of water used in the magnetic separation process may be 10L/h to 100L/h, such as 10L/h, 20L/h, 30L/h, 40L/h, 50L/h, 60L/h, 70L/h, 80L/h, 90L/h, or 100L/h, and the like, and may be any other value within the range of 10L/h to 100L/h. In some embodiments, the amount of water used in the magnetic separation process is 60L/h.
On the premise of bearing, through the magnetic separation, magnetic materials and non-magnetic materials can be effectively separated by utilizing the magnetic field of the magnetic separation column and the gravity elutriation, the magnetic materials mainly comprise nickel, cobalt and manganese, and the impurity content in the leaching liquid of the magnetic materials is greatly reduced. The non-magnetic material contains, in addition to graphite, nickel and cobalt (e.g., nickel oxide, cobalt oxide), manganese oxide, etc., which are partially unreduced into simple substances.
In the present disclosure, the first acid leaching includes: the non-magnetic material is pressure leached with a first acid and a first oxidizing agent.
The first acid used in this process includes sulfuric acid and the like.
The mass ratio of the non-magnetic material to the first acid may be 1:2-1:5, such as 1:2, 1:2.5, 1:3, 1:3.5, 1:4, 1:4.5, or 1:5, etc., or any other value within the range of 1:2-1:5. In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the non-magnetic material to the first acid is 1:3.

The amount of the first oxidizing agent may be 0.5 to 3 times, such as 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, or 3 times, the molar amount of the metal contained in the nonmagnetic material, or any other value in the range of 0.5 to 3 times. In some embodiments, the first oxidizing agent is used in an amount of 1.2 times the molar amount of the metal contained in the non-magnetic material.
The first oxidizing agent may illustratively include at least one of hydrogen peroxide, sodium sulfite, and sodium thiosulfate.
For reference, the pressure of the first acid leaching may be 0.4MPa to 1.5MPa, such as 0.4MPa, 0.5MPa, 0.8MPa, 1.0MPa, 1.2MPa, 1.5MPa, etc., and may be any other value within the range of 0.4MPa to 1.5 MPa. In some embodiments, the pressure of the first acid leach is 1MPa.
The first acid leaching time may be 20min-120min, such as 20min, 40min, 60min, 80min, 100min or 120min, or any other value within 20min-120 min. In some embodiments, the time of the first acid leaching is 90 minutes.
After the first acid leaching, solid-liquid separation is carried out to obtain first acid leaching slag and first acid leaching liquid. The first acid leaching slag mainly comprises graphite slag, and also contains a small part of metal simple substances such as nickel and cobalt which are not completely leached and oxides thereof. The first pickling liquid mainly contains nickel, cobalt and manganese, and comprises nickel sulfate, cobalt sulfate and manganese sulfate.
On the other hand, by carrying out pressurized acid leaching on the nonmagnetic material according to the conditions, most of nickel, cobalt and manganese in the nonmagnetic material can be leached, and the leaching reaction rate is accelerated, and the leaching time is shortened.
In some embodiments, the first pickling solution obtained by the first pickling may be subjected to further impurity removal and extraction to obtain a second product containing nickel sulfate, cobalt sulfate and manganese sulfate.
For reference, the extraction reagent used in the extraction of the first pickling solution may illustratively include at least one of 2-ethylhexyl phosphate mono-2-ethylhexyl ester (i.e., extractant P507), di (2-ethylhexyl) phosphate ester (i.e., extractant P204), and di (2, 4-trimethylpentyl) phosphinic acid (i.e., extractant C272). In some embodiments, the first pickle liquor may be extracted in steps using the extraction reagents described above.
If the first acid leaching residue is directly subjected to flotation, it is difficult to effectively separate graphite and amorphous carbon (such as pulverized coal in a conductive agent and a reducing agent) in the first acid leaching residue, and the oxidation temperature of the graphite is higher than that of the amorphous carbon. Thus, the present disclosure subjects the first acid leaching residue to a second roasting and then to flotation.
The second calcination is carried out under aerobic conditions, which may be, for example, air conditions or oxygen conditions.
The temperature of the second firing may be 300℃to 550℃such as 300℃and 350℃and 400℃and 450℃and 500℃or 550℃or any other value within the range of 300℃to 550 ℃. In some embodiments, the temperature of the second firing is 450 ℃.
The second roasting time is 30min-180min, such as 30min, 50min, 80min, 100min, 120min, 150min or 180min, or any other value within 30min-180 min. In some embodiments, the second firing time is 120 minutes.
On the premise, amorphous carbon in the first acid leaching slag can be effectively removed by performing the second roasting according to the conditions, and the quality of the subsequent graphite concentrate is improved. In addition, after the first acid leaching, a small part of metal simple substances and oxides such as nickel and cobalt which are not leached completely can be baked for the second time to form metal oxides which are easier to react with acid (such as sulfuric acid), so that the subsequent purification and impurity removal are facilitated.
In this disclosure, flotation may be performed in a flotation column, and the flotation reagents used in flotation include collectors, frothers, and modifiers. Wherein the collector comprises kerosene or diesel oil, which may be used in an amount of 300g/t, for example; the foaming agent comprises a pinitol oil or a sec-octanol, which may be used in an amount of, for example, 120g/t; the regulator comprises water glass or sodium hexametaphosphate, which can be used in an amount of 1000g/t, for example.
It should be noted that the flotation using the flotation column of the present disclosure has the following advantages over the conventional flotation using a flotation machine: the grade of the graphite product obtained by the flotation column is higher, and the recovery rate is also higher.
Through the flotation, the recovery of fine-fraction graphite is facilitated and the recovery rate of graphite is improved.

The high temperature carbonization time can be 30min-240min, such as 30min, 50min, 80min, 100min, 120min, 150min, 180min, 200min, 220min or 240min, or any other value within 30min-240 min. In some embodiments, the time for high temperature carbonization is 120 minutes.
The high temperature carbonization is performed in an oxygen-free atmosphere (such as an inert atmosphere or a nitrogen atmosphere).
According to the method, the graphite is coated by adopting the carbon-containing substance, and then high-temperature carbonization is carried out, so that a graphite product reaching the battery level can be directly obtained, and the high cost caused by graphitizing the graphite under the condition of more than 2500 ℃ in the prior art is avoided.
In some embodiments, the graphite may be purified prior to repair.
The purification reagents used for purification may include hydrochloric acid and nitric acid.
Wherein, the mass ratio of the purifying reagent to the graphite can be 2:1, the concentration of hydrochloric acid can be 200g/L, the concentration of nitric acid can be 200g/L, and the purifying time can be 100min.

Further, in order to realize recycling of all components of the waste ternary lithium battery, in the present disclosure, lithium extraction liquid obtained by lithium extraction treatment may be subjected to lithium precipitation treatment to obtain a lithium-containing product.
The lithium extraction liquid obtained by the lithium extraction treatment is leaching liquid obtained by acid leaching lithium treatment, and the main component of the leaching liquid is lithium.
The precipitated lithium can be recovered by adding carbon dioxide or sodium carbonate, etc. to the lithium extraction solution and heating the precipitate.
Further, in order to realize recycling of all components of the waste ternary lithium battery, in the present disclosure, the magnetic material obtained by magnetic separation may be subjected to second acid leaching, solid-liquid separation to obtain a second acid leaching solution, and the second acid leaching solution is subjected to extraction and impurity removal to obtain a first product containing nickel sulfate, cobalt sulfate and manganese sulfate.
