摘 要: 目前，廢舊鋰離子電池產(chǎn)生量日益增加，但其混合正負(fù)極活性材料分離提純工藝方法存在不足，本文提出了一種環(huán)境友好的物理分離回收方法—— 磁選-浮選法。結(jié)果表明：多種主流鋰離子電池正極活性材料均能被高梯度磁選設(shè)備吸附，而作為負(fù)極的石墨材料則不會(huì)被吸附。以廢舊磷酸鐵鋰動(dòng)力電池進(jìn)行高梯度磁選分離實(shí)驗(yàn)，所得磁性產(chǎn)物中C品位可降低至12%~13%，非磁性產(chǎn)物中C品位可提高至91%~92%。此外，將高梯度磁選與泡沫浮選相結(jié)合，可以進(jìn)一步提高分離效率，所得LiFePO4產(chǎn)品中C品位可降低至4.8%。試驗(yàn)結(jié)果對(duì)于開(kāi)發(fā)適用的廢舊磷酸鐵鋰電池回收工藝具有重要參考作用。

Abstract:At present, the amount of waste lithium-ion batteries is increasing day by day, but there are shortcomings in the separation and purification process of mixed positive and negative active materials. Therefore, an environment-friendly physical separation and recovery method, magnetic separation combined with flotation, was proposed in this paper. The results show that a variety of mainstream lithium ion battery cathode active materials can be adsorbed by high gradient magnetic separation equipment, while graphite materials used as anode materials will not be adsorbed. In the experiment of high gradient magnetic separation with waste LiFePO4 power battery, the grade of C in magnetic products can be reduced to 12%-13%, and the grade of C in non-magnetic products can be increased to 91%-92%. In addition, the combination of high gradient magnetic separation and foam flotation can further enhance the separation efficiency, and the C grade of the LiFePO4 products can be reduced to 4.8%. The experimental results have important reference value for the development of suitable recycling process of waste LiFePO4 batteries.
