Minimizing Leaching of Al, Co, Cu, Fe, Li, and Ni during Discharge of Lithium-Ion Batteries
Abstract
The Existing Methods for Recycling Lithium-Ion Batteries Present Initial Hurdles Related to the Safe Handling and Preparation of the Batteries to Avert Potential Explosions. Submerging Batteries in Sodium Chloride (NaCl) Solution Has Become an Acceptable Industrial Practice. However, the Use of NaCl to Discharge Lithium-Ion Batteries Rusts the Batteries' Cases and Releases Metals Which Impacts the Downstream Processes that Involve Selective Recovery of Li. This Study Aimed to Determine the Optimal Concentrations and PH Range of NaCl for the Discharge of Lithium-Ion Batteries for the Purpose of Minimizing the Leach of Al, Co, Cu, Fe, Li, and Ni.
