Background
With the increasing demand of electric vehicles, smart grids and portable devices for energy storage systems, the consumption of lithium ion batteries is greatly accelerated. Since the life of the lithium ion battery is only 3-10 years, a large number of scrapped lithium batteries become a serious environmental problem which we have to face, and a large number of scrapped lithium batteries are expected to be generated in the next decade. According to the estimation of an authority, in 2021, only China has 65 million tons of waste lithium ion batteries to be recycled. Because plastic or metal shells, electrolyte salt and electrode waste materials in the waste lithium ion batteries have recovery values, the research and application of the recycling technology of the lithium batteries are generally regarded by people.
The outer layer of the lithium ion battery is wrapped by a plastic, aluminum and iron shell, and the inner layer is composed of a positive active material, a negative active material, an aluminum or copper foil current collector, a binder, a polyethylene or polypropylene porous diaphragm material, electrolyte salt dissolved in the electrolyte and the like. The positive electrode active material is mostly lithium cobaltate, lithium nickelate, lithium manganate, etc. Most of the negative electrode active materials are graphite, hard carbon, and soft carbon in which metal Li is embedded. The positive and negative active powder is coated on the aluminum foil or copper foil current collector through polyvinylidene fluoride adhesive to form the electrode. Among them, recycling of the positive electrode material is particularly important.
In recent years, the technology of recycling the positive electrode material of the lithium ion battery has been greatly improved, but the development of the recycling industry is still restricted by the high recycling cost and the practical operation problem, wherein most of the lithium iron phosphate batteries, which are commonly used lithium ion batteries, are currently recycled by aiming at lithium salts individually, and although the lithium iron phosphate batteries are not affected by transition metals, the recycling process is also complicated. Therefore, improvement of the recovery process of lithium iron phosphate is imperative.

Chinese patent application No. 202010224562.X discloses a resource recovery method and system of a waste lithium iron phosphate anode based on hydrochloric acid circulation, the recovery method comprises the steps of activating and screening the waste lithium iron phosphate anode to realize the separation of a current collector and a lithium iron phosphate active substance, then crushing and acid leaching with hydrochloric acid to obtain a solution containing ferrous chloride, lithium chloride and phosphoric acid, separating to obtain phosphoric acid by adopting an extraction method, realizing the separation of the phosphoric acid and the solution containing the ferrous chloride and the lithium chloride, then realizing the separation of Fe and Li by concentration pyrolysis and water leaching, and obtaining iron oxide red and a lithium chloride solution, and absorbing HCl generated in the pyrolysis process to obtain hydrochloric acid for recycling.
In order to promote the effective recycling of the positive electrode material of the lithium iron phosphate battery and solve the problems of large acid and alkali consumption and serious environmental pollution of the traditional recycling process, a novel recycling process of the positive electrode material of the lithium iron phosphate battery is necessary, and the efficient and environment-friendly recycling of the positive electrode material of the lithium iron phosphate battery is realized.
