This study provides a new approach to the selective and green recovery of lithium in spent LiFePO 4 batteries. This study proposes a green process for selective and rapid extraction of lithium from the cathode materials of spent lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries via mechanochemical solid-phase oxidation.
The lithium was selectively leached to achieve the separation of lithium and iron. The use of salt as a leaching agent can be recycled in the recycling process. More and more lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO 4, LFP) batteries are discarded, and it is of great significance to develop a green and efficient recycling method for spent LiFePO 4 cathode.
The recovered Li 2 CO 3 and FePO 4 can be used as raw materials for producing lithium iron phosphate. The process route is short and efficient with almost no wastewater and solid waste, which provides a new method for the recovery of waste LFP batteries. 1. Introduction
In conclusion, large amounts of acid and alkali were consumed to completely leach and recover the metal in the spent LiFePO 4 cathode material, which leads to a heavy cost and low recycling profit owing to the high acid and alkali consumption, as well as low percentage content of valuable metal in spent LiFePO 4 batteries.
Our findings suggest that the activation method is a low-cost and easy to operate way to recover the LiFePO 4 material from the spent LiFePO 4 batteries, and the acid consumption is relatively lower than the previously reported results during leaching process, which gives a feasible industrially application.
Because of its benefits of reversibility, cost-effective, great thermal safety, high power capacity, and low toxicity, lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO 4, LFP) has been regarded as one of the most appropriate cathode materials for energy storage devices and electric vehicles [4, 5].
