An effective and environmentally friendly recycling process designed for LiCoO cathode powders of spent Li-ion batteries using mixture of mild organic acids, citric acid (CA), tartaric acid (TA) and ascorbic acid (AA), to recover the metals. Almost complete dissolution of Li and nearly 90% dissolution of Co occurred in at 80 °C for 6 h. The reducing agent, ascorbic acid (AA), converts the dissolved Co(III) to Co(II) thereby selective recovery of Co as Co(II)-oxalate is possible. The formation of Co(III)-and Co(II) complex is evident from the UV-Vis spectra of the dissolved solution as a function of dissolution time. Thus, the reductive-complexing dissolution mechanism is proposed here. These mild organic acids are environmentally benign unlike the mineral acids.
一种有效且环保的回收工艺,该工艺使用柠檬酸(CA)、酒石酸(TA)和抗坏血酸(AA)等温和有机酸的混合物,用于回收废旧锂离子电池的LiCoO正极粉末中的金属。在80°C下反应6小时,Li几乎完全溶解,Co的溶解率接近90%。还原剂抗坏血酸(AA)将溶解的Co(III)转化为Co(II),从而有可能选择性地回收Co形成Co(II)草酸盐。从溶解溶液的紫外可见光谱随溶解时间的变化可以明显看出Co(III)和Co(II)配合物的形成。因此本文提出了还原络合溶解机制。与无机酸不同,这些温和的有机酸对环境无害。
