Abstract:

With the development of large-scale energy storage and electric vehicle market, the demand for lithium-ion batteries is increasing, resulting in an explosive growth in the number of spent lithium-ion batteries. The cathode materials of spent lithium-ion batteries contain abundant valuable metal elements such as lithium, cobalt, nickel and manganese. The recovery of those metals has high economic value and significant environment benefits. As a green solvent, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) show great potential in the recovery of valuable metal elements from spent lithium-ion batteries. Based on a brief introduction of the properties and applications of DESs, this paper systematically reviews the research status of DESs in the recycling chain of cathode materials from spent lithium-ion batteries, mainly including the separation of cathode material, leaching of active substances and recovery of valuable metal. The current recycling methods and process flow are discussed, and the advantages and disadvantages of different kinds of DESs for leaching cathode active materials are compared as well. Finally, the common problems of the current DESs in the recycling spent lithium-ion batteries are analyzed, and the development direction of DESs recycling of lithium-ion batteries is proposed.

Key words: deep eutectic solvent, spent lithium ions batteries, separation, leaching, recovery

摘要:

大规模储能与电动汽车市场的发展壮大对锂离子电池的需求水涨船高,由此产生的废旧锂离子电池数量也即将迎来爆发式增长。废旧锂离子电池正极材料蕴含丰富的锂、钴、镍、锰等有价金属元素,回收经济价值高,环境效益显著。低共熔溶剂(DESs)作为一种绿色溶剂,在废旧锂离子电池有价金属元素回收方面显示出巨大的潜力。本文在简要介绍DESs性质及应用的基础上,系统综述了DESs在废旧锂离子电池正极材料回收链中的研究现状,主要包括正极材料的分离、活性物质的浸出以及有价金属的提取,着重介绍了现阶段回收的方法及工艺流程,比较了不同DESs浸出正极活性物质的优缺点,探讨了当前DESs在废旧锂离子电池回收中的共性问题,并展望了未来DESs回收锂离子电池的发展方向。
