Recovery of Lithium from Waste Box Sagger Through Sulfation and Wet Conversion Methods
Social Science Research Network(2022)
摘要
To supplement the increasing demand for Li resources dictated by the growing market for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), this study aimed to secure lithium carbonate (Li 2 CO 3 ) using a waste box sagger generated from the process of manufacturing cathode materials for LIBs. Li was recovered through sulfation and subsequent wet conversion into high-purity Li 2 CO 3 . Li extractability (93%) from the waste box sagger powder was determined by the sulfation reaction using 5 M H 2 SO 4 and H 2 O leaching of the resultant. The precipitation efficiency (85%) of Li into Li 3 PO 4 in extracted Li solution was established using a NaOH and H 3 PO 4 mixture. The maximum conversion efficiency (99%) of Li 3 PO 4 to LiCl solution was calculated using a reflux method with CaCl 2 solution at a solid (g)/liquid (L) ratio of 100. The highest Li + concentration reached 50800 mg/L at a solid/liquid ratio of 400 and Cl/Li molar ratio of 0.95 in the range of tested conditions. Finally, high-purity Li 2 CO 3 (99.8% in metal basis) was produced from the obtained Li solution through purification using NaOH, followed by carbonation using sodium carbonate (Na 2 CO 3 ). The proposed method demonstrates the feasibility of securing a Li resource by recycling waste box sagger instead of disposing them as a designated waste.
