Spent LIBs contain not only dangerous heavy metals but also toxic chemicals that pose a serious threat to ecosystems and human health. Therefore, a great deal of attention has been paid to the development of an efficient process to recycle spent LIBs for both economic aspects and environmental protection. In this paper, we review the state-of-the-art processes for metal recycling from spent LIBs, introduce the structure of a LIB, and summarize all available technologies that are used in different recovery processes. It is notable that metal extraction and pretreatment play impor- tant roles in the whole recovery process, based on one or more of the principles of pyrometallurgy, hydrometallurgy, biometallurgy, and so forth. By further comparing different recycling methods, existing challenges are identified and suggestions for improving the recycling effectiveness can be proposed.展开更多

The recovery of Cu, Ni, Zn and Cr is 94%, 91%, 90% and 95%, respectively. The ammonia was recycled by the simplified process of CaO caustic distillation. The precipitated product of Cu, Ni and Zn obtained from caustic distillation of ammonia was separated by extraction or high\|pressure hydrogen reduction in an autoclave. The qualified metal salt products were obtained through extraction. The rich chromium residue from coordinative disposal was subjected to recover Cr by hydrothermal oxidation in NaOH medium and Fe\-3O\-4 was synthesized by wet methods from the residue produced by extracting Cr. Cr was a stable chemical fixed in Fe\-3O\-4 and harmless. The recovery process has been used in a pilot plant with sludge production capacity of 2000 t/a.展开更多

For this process, we prepared several novel adsorbents which were immobilized in a porous sili- c^polymer composite support (SiO2-P). Adsorption and separation behavior of various elements was studied experimentally in detail. Small scale separation tests using simulated HLLW solutions were carried out. Pd(II) was strongly adsorbed by the AR-01 anion exchanger and effectively eluted off by using thiourea. Successful separation of Pd(ll) from simulated HLLW was achieved. Te(VII) also exhibited strong adsorption on AR-01 and could be eluted off by using U(IV) as a reductive eluent. Am(Ⅲ) presented significantly high adsorbability and selectivity onto R-BTP/SiOz-P adsorbents over various FPs including Ln(Ⅲ). The R-BTP adsorbents were fairly stable in 3 M HNO3, but instable against 7-irradiation-3M HNO3. An advanced par- titioning process consisting of three separation columns for the target elements separation from HLLW was proposed and the obtained experiment results indicated that the proposed process is essentially feasible.展开更多

The influence of the coal dosage, reduction temperature, and reduction time on the volatilization rates of lead and zinc and the metallization rate of iron were investigated. The results show that the volatilization rates of lead and zinc were 96.97% and 99.89%, respectively, and the iron metallization rate was 91.97% under the optimal reduction roasting conditions of a coal dosage of 25.0 wt% and reduction roasting at 1250°C for 60 min. The magnetic concentrate with an iron content of 90.59 wt% and an iron recovery rate of 50.87% was obtained under the optimum conditions in which 96.56% of the reduction product particles were smaller than 37 μm and the magnetic field strength was 24 k A/m. Therefore, the results of this study demonstrate that recovering valuable metals such as lead, zinc, and iron from jarosite residues is feasible using the developed approach.展开更多

The optimum technological parameters for metallizing reduction and magnetic separation on ludwigite ore were obtained as reduction tempera- ture of 1 250 ℃, reduction time of 60 min, carbon ratio of 1.4, ore size of 0.500-2.000 mm, and coal size of 0.50-1.50 mm. After adopting the optimum parameters, the iron content and recovery ratio of iron in magnetic substance are 87.78% and 88.02%, re- spectively, while the recovery ratios of boron, magnesium and silicon in non-magnetic substance are 88.86%, 94.60% and 98.66%, respectively. After metallizing reduction and magnetic separation, valuable elements of ludwigite ore could be separated and uti- lized in subsequent steelmaking process and hydrometallurgy process.展开更多
