    盐浸-氧化循环工艺高效回收废旧LiFePO4正极粉

    Efficient recovery of spent LiFePO4 cathode powder using salt leaching-oxidation cycle process

    • 摘要: 为实现废旧磷酸铁锂(LFP)电池正极粉的高效低成本回收,通过盐浸-氧化循环工艺,回收废旧LFP正极粉。以FeCl3为浸出剂,通过H2O2氧化使浸出液中的FeCl2变回FeCl3,实现浸出剂的再生。在优化条件下,第1次浸出的Li浸出率可达99.56%,再生循环10次后仍保持97.37%的浸出率。浸出后的残渣是FePO4粗品。最终的浸出液通过KOH沉淀法除去其中的Fe2+、Fe3+和Al3+可得到较纯净的LiCl溶液,Li+浓度可达4 mol·L−1。经过对盐浸-氧化循环、酸浸选择性提锂和盐浸-萃取耦合3种方法的经济性估算,发现盐浸-氧化循环工艺的耗水量更低、成本更低,具有较好的工业化应用前景。

       

      Abstract: In order to realize the efficient and low-cost recycling of spent LFP cathode powder, the spent LFP cathode powder was recovered through the salt leaching-oxidation cycle process. FeCl3 was used as the leaching agent, and the FeCl2 in the leaching solution was oxidized back to FeCl3 using H2O2, enabling the regeneration of the leaching agent. Under optimized conditions, the leaching efficiency of Li reached 99.56% in the first leaching cycle and remained at 97.37% after ten cycles. The residue was crude FePO4. The purer LiCl solution was obtained by adding KOH to precipitate Fe2+, Fe3+, and Al3+ in the final leaching solution, and the concentration of Li+ was 4.80 mol·L−1. Economic evaluations of three methods, i.e., salt leaching-oxidation cycle, selective lithium extraction by acid leaching, and coupled salt leaching-extraction, revealed that the salt leaching-oxidation cycle process consumes less water and incurs lower costs, making it highly promising for industrial application.
