This method extracts lithium from the powder state by putting the active material powder from the pre-treated waste lithium-ion battery in water and separating the lithium using a Li-ion conductive ceramic solid electrolyte.
The electrochemical extraction method can extract 75–95% of lithium from active material powder during recycling, and it can extract not only Li 2 CO 3 compounds but also lithium metal if necessary. The recycled lithium metal was analyzed using inductively coupled plasma analysis and showed a purity of 99%.
Typical direct, pyrometallurgical, and hydrometallurgical recycling methods for recovery of Li-ion battery active materials. From top to bottom, these techniques are used by OnTo, (15) Umicore, (20) and Recupyl (21) in their recycling processes (some steps have been omitted for brevity).
There is almost no research on the extraction of lithium from non-batteries. Because 35% of the lithium is used for glass, grease, and casting (as of 2019), more attention should be paid to the recycling of lithium from these products.
Active lithium is directed extracted from retired lithium-ion batteries with optimized conditions utilizing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and nonpolar ether solvent. Using the recovered lithium solution, LiFePO 4 with performance on par with commercial materials are synthesized.
It is anticipated that this method may redefine the recycling paradigm for retired LIBs and drive the sustainable development of industries. Active lithium is directed extracted from retired lithium-ion batteries with optimized conditions utilizing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and nonpolar ether solvent.
