Experimental and DFT simulation of collective dissolution of anode/cathode of Li−ion batteries using a ChCl−PTSA deep eutectic solvent
In this study, the cumulative dissolution of the anode and cathode (A/C) mixture of Li-ion batteries (LIBs) in a deep eutectic solvent (DES) composed of choline chloride (ChCl) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (PTSA) was evaluated within a temperature range of 40–100 °C and a time range of 20–1440 min. The results showed that Ni, Co, Li, Mn, and Cu metals dissolved with over 90 % efficiency at 100 °C and 1440 min, while Al dissolved at only about 26 % under the same conditions. XRD and SEM-EDS analyses confirmed these findings, with minimum residual compounds of Ni, Co, Li, Mn, or Cu detected. FTIR confirmed ChCl−PTSA DES formation and its after-leaching stability, allowing reuse with minimal changes for sustainable metal recovery. The ChCl–PTSA DES exhibits a symmetric σ−profile (centered at σ = 0 ± 0.2 e/Å2), COSMO-identified nucleophilic/electrophilic regions (+0.214 to −0.158 e/Å2), and Mulliken charges (O: −0.47 to −0.65, Cl: −0.39, H: +0.06 to 0.15). These density functional theory (DFT) simulations highlight charge complementarity, stabilizing the eutectic structure via sulfonic oxygen, chloride, and ammonium group interactions. According to DFT simulation for pure and containing metal ions DES, the ChCl−PTSA exhibits a 3.87 eV HOMO−LUMO gap, enabling efficient metal leaching. Co(II) (2.29 eV gap) and Mn(II) (0.56 eV) show higher stability than higher oxidation states, while Li(I) widens the gap (3.97 eV), enhancing stability. DFT simulations reveal distinct COSMO surface charge distributions for metal ions in ChCl–PTSA, categorized as: (1) highly polarized (Co(II): +0.3253 to −0.2158 e/Å2; Mn(II): +0.3769 to −0.2496 e/Å2), exhibiting strong charge separation and high reactivity; (2) moderately polarized (Ni(II): +0.2240 to −0.2061 e/Å2; Al(III): +0.2547 to −0.2192 e/Å2), balancing reactivity and stability; and (3) minimally perturbed (Li(I): +0.2485 to −0.1861 e/Å2; Cu(I): +0.3233 to −0.1876 e/Å2), showing stable charge delocalization.
期刊介绍:
The word ‘particuology’ was coined to parallel the discipline for the science and technology of particles.
Particuology is an interdisciplinary journal that publishes frontier research articles and critical reviews on the discovery, formulation and engineering of particulate materials, processes and systems. It especially welcomes contributions utilising advanced theoretical, modelling and measurement methods to enable the discovery and creation of new particulate materials, and the manufacturing of functional particulate-based products, such as sensors.
Papers are handled by Thematic Editors who oversee contributions from specific subject fields. These fields are classified into: Particle Synthesis and Modification; Particle Characterization and Measurement; Granular Systems and Bulk Solids Technology; Fluidization and Particle-Fluid Systems; Aerosols; and Applications of Particle Technology.
Key topics concerning the creation and processing of particulates include:
-Modelling and simulation of particle formation, collective behaviour of particles and systems for particle production over a broad spectrum of length scales
-Mining of experimental data for particle synthesis and surface properties to facilitate the creation of new materials and processes
-Particle design and preparation including controlled response and sensing functionalities in formation, delivery systems and biological systems, etc.
-Experimental and computational methods for visualization and analysis of particulate system.
These topics are broadly relevant to the production of materials, pharmaceuticals and food, and to the conversion of energy resources to fuels and protection of the environment.
