Abstract

Abstract

This research proposed a green method for recovering positive active substances from spent lithium cobalt oxide batteries, used tartaric acid as the leaching agent and reducing agent to recover cobalt and lithium. The results showed that the leaching rates of cobalt and lithium were 92.95% and 91.86% respectively, when the molar ratio of lithium cobalt oxide to tartaric acid was 1∶4, the solid-liquid ratio was 15 g/L, the reaction temperature was 90 ℃ and the reaction time was 5 h. Kinetic analysis showed that the leaching reactions of Co and Li could be fitted best by the classical model. And their apparent activation energies were 55.20 kJ/mol and 63.65 kJ/mol respectively, which belonged to endothermic reaction and chemical reaction control. This process can achieve the efficient and green way by recovering waste lithium cobalt oxide cathode materials, and provide a theoretical basis for the recovery of other waste lithium-ion batteries.
