Description
The hydrometallurgical material recycling process of used lithium iron phosphate power battery is disassembled and sorted after discharge to obtain the cathode sheet, and the NaAlO2 solution and lithium iron phosphate filter slag are obtained by alkali dissolution, and the filter slag containing lithium, phosphorus filtrate and carbon black are further leached to obtain lithium-containing filtrate and carbon black, and the iron-containing precipitate and lithium-containing filtrate are obtained by alkalinization and impurity removal, and finally the lithium-containing precipitate is filtered as a recycled product.
The collection and transportation of this product is not taken into account in the respective marketing activities. This dataset is suitable for the wet recovery process of lithium iron phosphate batteries after decommissioning.
Activity Description
This dataset represents the treatment of retired lithium iron phosphate batteries from the fields of power, consumer electronics and energy storage via the hydrometallurgical recycling process. It includes the consumption of energy (electricity, water) and auxiliary materials (hydrochloric acid, hydrogen peroxide, sodium hydroxide, calcium chloride), the discharge of solid wastes (waste plastic casings, waste separators, waste battery management systems, waste copper, waste aluminum, graphite and other solid wastes) and air pollutants (dust, hydrogen fluoride, volatile organic compounds, hydrochloric acid mist), as well as the product output (lithium chloride).
Process Description
Used for the resource utilization treatment of retired lithium iron phosphate batteries.
