Lithium-ion Battery Recycling Plant
Lithium ion batteries/lithium secondary batteries are rechargeable batteries that typically use lithium metal oxides as the positive electrode material, graphite as the negative electrode material, and non-aqueous liquid organic electrolytes.
At present, research on the recycling of used lithium batteries mainly focuses on the recovery of high-value anode precious metals cobalt and lithium.
Description
Lithium ion batteries/lithium secondary batteries are rechargeable batteries that typically use lithium metal oxides as the positive electrode material, graphite as the negative electrode material, and non-aqueous liquid organic electrolytes.
At present, research on the recycling of used lithium batteries mainly focuses on the recovery of high-value anode precious metals cobalt and lithium. The copper (content up to 35%) in the negative electrode of waste lithium batteries is an important production raw material and has a wide range of uses. The carbon powder attached to it can be used as additives for plastics, rubber, etc. Based on the structural characteristics of lithium batteries, our company adopts environmentally friendly physical separation processes to achieve efficient separation and recycling of used lithium batteries.
The Lithium-ion Battery Recycling Plant is used for the dismantling and recycling of soft pack batteries, mobile phone batteries, case batteries, cylindrical batteries, etc. The plant’s end products are graphite powder, lithium aluminum cobalt oxide and copper.
Lithium-ion Battery Recycling Plant Process Flow
Based on the structure of anode and cathode of lithium battery and the material characteristics of copper and carbon powder, a combined process of tearing machine, wind separator, hammer crushing, vibrating screen and air separation was used to separate and recover the cathode material of waste lithium battery.
Flow char
The scrapped lithium battery enters the shredder for shredding, the shredded battery enters the special crusher for crushing, the positive and negative electrode sheets and diaphragm paper inside the battery are scattered, the scattered materials enter the collector through the induced draft fan, and then the dust generated in the crushing is collected and purified by the pulse dust collector, and the materials entering the collector enter the airflow sorting screen through the air closer, and the diaphragm paper in the positive and negative electrode sheets is collected through the airflow plus vibration, and the dust generated by the airflow separator is collected at the same time. Then, the mixture is separated and recycled by hammer vibration crushing, vibrating screening and air flow sorting combined processes.
Applicable materials:
To be recycled battery types–Cell phone batteries, car power batteries, laptop batteries, all kinds of LIB battery, not limited to the 6kinds below:
NMC (NCM) – Lithium Nickel Cobalt Manganese Oxide (LiNiCoMnO2)
LFP – Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4/C)
LNMO – Lithium Nickel Manganese Spinel (LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4)
