  • the structure of LiFePO 4 is relatively stable. After long-cycle decommissioning, it can restore its electrochemical performance to a considerable extent through appropriate lithium replenishment and coated carbon repair techniques, and has a high regeneration value. Although the energy density of recycled LFP is not high, it has the characteristics of low cost, long cycle performance, high thermal stability, and sufficient supply. It can be used in the field of energy storage on a large scale.
  • Material stripping is the most important technical link. From the macro perspective of composition control, it is equivalent to extracting higher purity LiFePO 4 from waste pole pieces.

Description

废旧磷酸铁锂选择性氧化-还原再生的方法、再生磷酸铁锂和锂离子电池
本申请要求于2019年12月9日提交中国专利局,申请号为2019112519214、发明名称为“废旧磷酸铁锂选择性氧化-还原再生的方法、再生磷酸铁锂和锂离子电池”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
【技术领域】
本申请涉及锂离子电池正极材料领域,涉及一种废旧磷酸铁锂选择性氧化-还原再生的方法、再生磷酸铁锂和锂离子电池。
【背景技术】
自2019年起我国已逐步进入大规模磷酸铁锂电池退役阶段,如处置不当,则会造成严重污染,导致新能源材料由“绿色”变为“黑色”。LiFePO 4自身结构较为稳定,长循环退役后通过适当的补锂、包覆碳修复等技术,可相当程度地恢复其电化学性能,具有较高的再生价值。再生LFP尽管能量密度不高,但其具有低成本、长循环性能、热稳定性高、货源充足等特点,可大规模用于储能领域。
目前废旧LFP直接再生利用已有大量的研究报道。主要工艺流程可总结归纳为:电池拆解、极片分拣→废旧LFP从极片剥离→成分及粒度调控→烧结修复。
材料剥离是最重要的技术环节,从成分调控的宏观角度看,相当于从废旧极片中提取较高纯度的LiFePO 4。这其中涉及2个关键问题,一是如何实现较高的剥离率,二是如何避免分离提取过程中Al粉等杂质异物的引入。针对以上问题,相关研究者们分别开发了干法热处理路线和湿法浸泡路线。干法热处理是依据粘结剂PVDF与铝箔的熔点不同而开发,如一种在360℃~490℃之间保温时只有PVDF熔融热解失去粘结剂效力,待冷却降温后经过振动筛分等方式即可剥离LFP。湿法浸泡则又分为无机碱性溶液溶解铝箔和有机溶剂溶解PVDF两类方法。然而,以上方法从实验室转化至中试量产时,尚存在若干问题。较为突出的问题有:火法路线中,少数极片因电解液未清理干净而致使铝箔粉化烧毁,不可避免地在后续剥离过程中引入了铝粉异物;而某些经过压实的极片,因材料颗粒已嵌入至铝箔中而无法完全剥离;同时具有共性的问题是经过匀浆添加的SP、PVDF在煅烧后会有残留碳,导致再生LFP碳含量明显过剩。这都带来了量产时剥离率和异物管控方面的问题。湿法路线中,碱性溶液湿法剥离路线则需消耗大量碱性试剂且剥离LFP需多次清洗产生大量废水;有机溶剂法的研究报道中液固比高达20:1,致使有机溶剂成本过高,若再加入蒸 馏回流工艺,则能耗成本又过高,依然难以实现产业化。
因此,开发一种能够使粘结剂充分失效实现高效剥离,同时能够选择性氧化脱除多余残留碳,最终实现废旧LFP短流程再生的技术,已成为该领域的攻关难点。
【申请内容】

【具体实施方式】
下面结合附图并通过具体实施方式来进一步说明本申请的技术方案。
为达上述目的,本申请采用以下技术方案:
第一方面,一实施方式的一种废旧磷酸铁锂选择性氧化-还原再生的方法,包括以下步骤S100~S300:
步骤S100:在通有温和氧化性气体的条件下,对废旧磷酸铁锂进行一次烧结;
步骤S200:从一次烧结所得物料中分离出磷酸铁锂粉料;
步骤S300:采用锂源和碳源,通过二次烧结的方式,对分离所得磷酸铁锂粉料进行补锂、补碳和组成调控,得到再生磷酸铁锂;
所述温和氧化性气体为:水蒸气、CO 2气体、或二者的混合气体。
本申请的废弃磷酸铁锂既可以是未进行碳包覆的磷酸铁锂,也可以是碳包覆的磷酸铁锂。
本申请的方法经过步骤S300中,使用锂源进行补锂,使用碳源进行补碳并作为还原剂。经过引入锂源和碳源实现调质,二次烧结,Li补入LFP晶格中,补碳起到修补包覆碳的作用,还原剂可以将步骤S100氧化产生的微量Fe 3+重新还原为Fe 2+,实现组成调控,最终保持LiFePO 4物相。
本申请以废旧磷酸铁锂LiFePO 4(以下简称LFP)原料,在水蒸气和/或CO 2的温和氧化性气体中一次烧结,以气固反应的方式使废旧LFP中的粘结剂失效的同时实现选择性氧化脱除残留包覆碳中的无定形包覆碳,而未脱除石墨化碳,由此提高了残留包覆碳的石墨化度,由于石墨化碳具有较高的导电性,能够抑制LFP晶粒的长大,进而可以提高废旧LFP在 步骤S300补锂、补碳和组成调控时二次烧结的温度且不会使晶粒过度长大,因此,经过适当补锂和二次烧结后最终可以获得晶粒尺寸适宜且结晶度更高的再生LFP,其电化学性能特征表现为具有极好的常温和高温循环性能、压实密度较高且成本低廉。
本申请的方法相对于现有技术还具有如下优势:
第一、由于本申请步骤S100在温和氧化性气体条件下一次烧结,从而可以与电解液中的有机物反应,避免产生侵蚀铝箔的问题;而若采用氮气等相对惰性的气氛,则无法与有机物反应,导致可能产生侵蚀铝箔的问题。
第二、本申请的方法经过步骤S100在温和氧化性气体的条件下进行一次烧结,可以使粘结剂(例如PVDF)失效以及无定型碳(例如SP)的氧化性脱除,若有铝异物存在,通过上述方法可以使磷酸铁锂和铝粉的反应界面松动,从而解决现有技术中无法脱除铝粉异物的问题。
以下作为本申请可选的技术方案,但不作为对本申请提供的技术方案的限制,通过以下可选的技术方案,可以更好的达到和实现本申请的技术目的和有益效果。
在一些实施方式中,所述温和氧化性气体为:水蒸气和CO 2气体的混合气体,可选水蒸气和CO 2气体的流速比为1:9~9:1,例如1:9、2:8、3:7、3.5:6.5、4:6、5:5、6:4、7:3、8:2或9:1等,进一步可选流速比为4:6~6:4。
本申请可选采用水蒸气和CO 2气体的混合气体的原因如下:使用混合气体比单一气体效果好,单一种类的水蒸气氧化性过高,几乎全部磷酸铁锂会被一同氧化,当磷酸铁锂几乎全被氧化后,再经还原时很难完全还原,仍会有微量的Fe 3+;而混合气体氧化性更合适,氧化脱碳后最多只有微量的磷酸铁锂被氧化,在二次烧结时易于被彻底还原修复;单一种类的二氧化碳在中低温(比如300~600℃)下氧化性不够,效果甚微,如果温度升至700℃左右则铝箔会粉化,后续难以分离。采用水蒸气和二氧化碳混合气体可以调控出合适的氧势,使其在目标温度范围内实现无定形碳组分的氧化脱除同时磷酸铁锂不被氧化(虽然有微量的Fe 2+被氧化为Fe 3+,由于含量微小,其可在步骤(3)碳修复的过程中被还原)。由此获得的再生LFP可以严格控制Fe 3+/Fe 2+,表现出更好的比容量和循环性能。
在一些实施方式中,所述水蒸气来源于去离子水及超纯水中的至少一种,可选所述水蒸气的电阻≥18MΩ,例如18MΩ、20MΩ、30MΩ、35MΩ、40MΩ或50MΩ等。

本申请对所述废旧磷酸铁锂来源不作限定,例如可以是来源于废旧磷酸铁锂电池极片和/或废旧磷酸铁锂浆料。
具体地,所述废旧磷酸铁锂电池极片包括:消费退役的废旧LFP电池拆解所得废旧LFP极片、电池厂报废的次品电池(可以是注液后的产品,也可以是未注液的产品)拆解所得废旧LFP极片、电池厂报废的次 品LFP极片。

在一些实施方式中,所述一次烧结的保温时间为0.5小时~15小时,例如0.5小时、1小时、2小时、3小时、4小时、5小时、6小时、7小时、8小时、10小时、11小时、13小时或14小时等,但不仅限于所列举数值,该数值范围内其他未列举的数值同样适用;可选为4小时~8小时。

由以上表格中数据可以看出,根据各实施例所述方法制备的再生LFP正极材料首次可逆容量、首次库伦效率、循环容量保持率等方面电化学性能均优于对比例所述方法制备的正极材料,说明本申请提出的选择性氧化-还原的方法可以制备出电化学性能更好的再生LFP。首次可逆容量的提升首先是得益于:废旧磷酸铁锂由于经过前期匀浆等工序导致其不具有电化学活性的碳的含量过高,本申请通过选择性氧化脱除其中的无定型包覆碳,一方面使碳含量下降,使材料中具有电化学活性的LFP占比提高;另一方面使较高石墨化度的包覆碳未被脱除依然能显著提高LFP的电导率,同时可在更高的二次烧结温度下抑制LFP晶粒长大,从而获得结晶度更高的小晶粒,使材料具有更长的循环性能。
由实施例1、对比例1和对比例2的对比可知,采用水蒸气与二氧化碳的混合气体可以使获得的再生LFP可以严格控制Fe 3+/Fe 2+,表现出更好的比容量和循环性能。
