Efficient recovery of valuable metals from spent lithium-ion batteries bydeep eutectic solvents at mild temperature
The recycling of spent lithium-ion batteries (LIB) is of great significance due to their high content of strategic metals such as lithium, cobalt, and manganese, which possess considerable recycling value. In this study, a high-efficiency, eco-friendly deep eutectic solvent (DES), choline chloride-citric acid, was synthesized and applied to recycling valuable metals from the cathode materials of spent LIB. The experimental results showed that recycling of Co、Li can be achieved under optimal conditions: leaching time 60 min, leaching temperature 80 °C, choline chloride: citric acid molar ratio 2:1, the leaching efficiencies of 94.26 % for Co and 96.98 % for Li. Moreover, we deeply analyzed the leaching mechanism of DES by leaching kinetics, it was found that the leaching reactions of two valuable metals, Co and Li, are controlled by diffusion and mixed surface chemical reactions. The activation energies of the two valuable metals were determined to be 16.60 kJ·mol−1 and 15.48 kJ·mol−1, respectively. Mechanism analysis results confirm that Li was leached preferentially, and DES forms complexes with transition metals, reducing the metal valence state and promoting metal leaching.
期刊介绍:
The Process Safety and Environmental Protection (PSEP) journal is a leading international publication that focuses on the publication of high-quality, original research papers in the field of engineering, specifically those related to the safety of industrial processes and environmental protection. The journal encourages submissions that present new developments in safety and environmental aspects, particularly those that show how research findings can be applied in process engineering design and practice.
PSEP is particularly interested in research that brings fresh perspectives to established engineering principles, identifies unsolved problems, or suggests directions for future research. The journal also values contributions that push the boundaries of traditional engineering and welcomes multidisciplinary papers.
PSEP's articles are abstracted and indexed by a range of databases and services, which helps to ensure that the journal's research is accessible and recognized in the academic and professional communities. These databases include ANTE, Chemical Abstracts, Chemical Hazards in Industry, Current Contents, Elsevier Engineering Information database, Pascal Francis, Web of Science, Scopus, Engineering Information Database EnCompass LIT (Elsevier), and INSPEC. This wide coverage facilitates the dissemination of the journal's content to a global audience interested in process safety and environmental engineering.
