Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the general field of the recycling of lithium batteries and more particularly to the recycling of batteries of the Li-ion type.
  • the invention relates to a process for dissolving a positive electrode material, with a view to its recycling and the recovery of the metallic elements which compose it.
  • the invention is particularly interesting since the extraction efficiency of these elements is very high and the method is quick and simple to implement.
  • Lithium-ion accumulators comprise a negative electrode, a positive electrode, a separator, an electrolyte and a box (“casing”) which can be a polymer pocket, or a metal packaging.
  • the negative electrode is generally made of graphite mixed with a binder of the PVDF type deposited on a copper sheet.
  • the positive electrode is a lithium ion insertion material (for example, UC0O 2 , LiMn0 2 , LÎ 3 NiMnCo0 6 , LiFeP04) mixed with a binder of the polyvinylidene fluoride type deposited on an aluminum sheet.
  • the electrolyte consists of lithium salts (UPF 6 , L1BF 4 , L1CIO 4 ) dissolved in an organic base formed from mixtures of binary or ternary solvents based on carbonates.
  • the operation is as follows: during charging, the lithium is deintercalated from the active material of the positive electrode and is inserted into the active material of the negative electrode. When discharging, the process is reversed.
  • the physical methods consist, for example, in dismantling the batteries, crushing them and then sifting the crushed material thus obtained.
  • the thermal methods are based on pyrometallurgical processes consisting in heating the residues at high temperature to separate the metals in the form of slag or alloys.
  • these thermal methods are energy-intensive because they require temperatures that can reach 1400°C.
  • very effective in separating cobalt, nickel and copper they do not allow manganese and lithium to be recovered.
  • Chemical methods are used to recover valuable elements in a pure form. These are hydrometallurgical processes using reagents in the liquid phase to dissolve and/or precipitate the metals. Traditional leaching uses highly concentrated acids. This step makes it possible to fully dissolve the electrode materials to be upgraded, in ionic form. The leachate thus obtained contains mixed metal ions such as lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese ions, etc. Chemical processes are then necessary to recover the valuable elements in a pure form.
  • document WO 2005/101564 Al describes the recycling of cells and batteries with a hydrometallurgical treatment process.
  • the process comprises the following steps: dry grinding, at ambient temperature and under an inert atmosphere, then treatment by magnetic separation and densimetric table, and aqueous hydrolysis, with a view to recovering the lithium, for example in the form of carbonate.
  • the fine fraction freed from soluble lithium and comprising the valuable elements is dissolved in a 2N sulfuric medium at a temperature of 80° C. in the presence of steel shot.
  • the cobalt is recovered by precipitation by adding sodium hypochlorite, with regulation of the pH to a value between 2.3 and 2.8. This method is used for a solution rich in cobalt (>98%) and very low in manganese ( ⁇ 2%). For a solution both rich in cobalt and in manganese, electrolysis is carried out at a temperature of 55° C. under a current density of between 400 and 600 A/m 2 .
  • hypochlorite is detrimental for the installations, the safety and therefore increases the cost of the process.
  • the process for recovering metals from ground lithium batteries or battery cells comprises the following steps:
  • the elution of the nickel and cobalt ions is, for example, carried out with a solution complexing the nickel and/or cobalt ions, for example with the aminopolycarboxylic acid.
  • the elution of the manganese ions is, for example, carried out with a mineral acid at a concentration of 2N to 4N.
  • ion exchange resins are relatively expensive, and need to be regenerated. Their use generates a lot of effluents, long treatment times and high acid consumption.
  • manganese has a low economic interest and must imperatively be removed upstream to avoid impacting the purity of the cobalt, nickel and lithium recovered (purity of 99.99%).
  • An object of the present invention is to propose a process for dissolving a positive electrode material, remedying the drawbacks of the prior art, the process having to be simple to implement, with a low environmental impact.
  • the present invention proposes a process for dissolving a positive electrode material of a battery comprising a step during which the positive electrode material, comprising lithium and optionally cobalt and/or nickel, in an acid solution at a pH of between 0 and 4, the acid solution additionally containing either manganese ions or hydrogen peroxide, whereby the lithium and optionally the cobalt and/or the nickel are dissolved and , if necessary, the manganese ions are selectively precipitated in the form of manganese oxyhydroxide.
  • the invention differs fundamentally from the prior art by the implementation of a hydrometallurgical process during which an electrode to be recycled is immersed in a so-called leaching or dissolving solution containing manganese ions or hydrogen peroxide.
  • the metals of interest such as lithium, nickel and/or cobalt are in the ionic form, and the manganese is in the form of a solid oxyhydroxide MnO(OH) .
  • the leaching/dissolution process makes it possible to recycle the positive electrode materials of batteries, of all electrochemical systems, which may contain manganese, of the accumulator or battery type treated separately or as a mixture.
  • the process can be used for various battery chemistries (NCA, NMC with different proportions, for example, 1/1/1, 5/3/2, 6/2/2, 8/1/1 or 9/0 , 5/0, 5).
  • NCA battery chemistries
  • This recycling and recovery process is robust and has good manganese separation yields for different types of battery waste.
  • the positive electrode material further comprises manganese.
  • the manganese of the positive electrode is dissolved in solution, as additional manganese ions, the additional manganese ions then precipitating out selectively as manganese oxyhydroxide .
  • This method makes it possible to selectively, quickly and efficiently recover manganese from an electrode containing lithium and possibly other elements, such as cobalt and/or nickel, even if the chemistry of manganese and that of these elements are very similar.
  • waste batteries preferably ground battery
  • the dissolving of waste batteries leads in a single step to the leaching of the metals contained in this waste and to the selective separation of the manganese.

These conditions avoid bringing the manganese into solution and thus facilitate its separation from the other elements of the solution.
