Description

Method for selectively separating and recovering lithium and manganese from waste lithium manganate battery
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of comprehensive utilization of solid waste resources, and mainly relates to a method for selectively separating and recovering lithium and manganese from waste lithium manganate batteries.
Background
In recent years, the continuous development and market expansion in the fields of electric automobiles, electronic devices, and energy storage have promoted the widespread use of lithium ion batteries. Among them, lithium manganate batteries are favored by the market due to their relatively high energy density. The number of lithium batteries has seen explosive growth due to their relatively high energy density, low cost and good safety performance. The charge-discharge cycle of the lithium ion battery is about 500-1000 times in actual use, and the service life of the lithium ion battery is 3-5 years. The scrapping peak of the waste lithium battery is expected to be met in China before and after 2022 years. LiMn 2 O 4 The main component of the battery is the positive electrode (LiMn) 2 O 4 Powder, binder and aluminum foil), negative electrodes (graphite, binder and copper foil), separators, electrolyte, and a housing. Lithium manganate batteries have a tendency to recycle waste lithium batteries because the content of valuable metals is higher than that of raw ores and the price of raw materials of lithium batteries is rapidly increased. The recycling of waste lithium ion batteries has become a worldwide focus from the point of view of economic efficiency and strategic resources. However, if the waste lithium battery is not recycled, not only precious metal resources are wasted, but also serious harm is caused. Such as heavy metal, fluorine and organic contamination. Therefore, the key point of recycling the waste lithium ion batteries of the electric vehicles is to find an efficient and environment-friendly green cleaning process.
The researchers have conducted extensive research aiming at the resource utilization of valuable elements in the waste lithium manganate batteries. In patent CN114715923A, a lithium manganate battery positive electrode material is subjected to oxidation leaching by a potassium hydroxide solution to obtain a mixed slurry, and then the mixed slurry is subjected to cooling and solid-liquid separation to obtain a potassium permanganate crystal and a separation liquid, and then carbon dioxide or the mixed separation liquid and potassium carbonate are introduced into the separation liquid to perform solid-liquid separation to obtain lithium carbonate. In patent CN109207725a, a lithium manganate battery positive electrode material is immersed in an acidic substance, and meanwhile, hydrogen peroxide is added to leach valuable metal elements in the positive electrode material, so as to obtain an acidified leachate, and then the acidified leachate is respectively input into an ultrafiltration membrane, a nanofiltration membrane and a reverse osmosis membrane, so as to finally obtain a concentrated lithium-containing solution and a solution containing other cations; finally, adding a lithium precipitator into the lithium-containing solution, and reacting to obtain a lithium precipitate. CN108123185A is a method for preparing manganese oxide, which comprises mixing a lithium manganate battery positive electrode material with an appropriate amount of carbon powder, calcining and reducing, adding water into the calcined material, slurrying, pumping into a stirring device, adding dilute acid dropwise to adjust and maintain the pH of the slurried calcined material mixed solution at 3.0-6.5, soaking, filtering to obtain a filtrate, removing impurities with sodium hydroxide, adding soluble carbonate, precipitating lithium carbonate, and drying the filter cake to obtain manganese oxide capable of preparing lithium manganate circularly. However, the above method has problems of expensive raw materials and complicated process, and limits the recycling of the waste lithium manganate batteries to some extent. Therefore, it is necessary to find cheaper raw materials or simpler operation process to meet the resource utilization of the waste lithium manganate battery.
The invention uses sulfate as an auxiliary agent, mixes the sulfate with the anode powder of the waste lithium manganate battery for two-stage roasting, extracts and separates lithium elements of the lithium manganate battery into a solution, and leaching residues are ferromanganese oxides and can be used for steel smelting. The process adopts the mixed roasting and leaching process of the lithium manganate and the sulfate, has simple operation, low production cost and easy separation, realizes the recycling of the lithium manganate battery and the sulfate, simultaneously has little leached iron in the solution, and greatly simplifies the purification process. The process combines the characteristics of lithium manganate and sulfate, recycles solid wastes, and has the characteristics of remarkable economic benefit and environmental friendliness.
