METHOD OF RECYCLING POSITIVE ELECTRODE ACTIVE MATERIAL AND RECYCLED POSITIVE ELECTRODE ACTIVE MATERIAL PREPARED BY THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18276008 titled 'METHOD OF RECYCLING POSITIVE ELECTRODE ACTIVE MATERIAL AND RECYCLED POSITIVE ELECTRODE ACTIVE MATERIAL PREPARED BY THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure is about a method of recycling a positive electrode active material and a recycled positive electrode active material prepared by the same. The method involves fragmenting a waste battery, removing the negative electrode, and treating the waste battery scraps to obtain positive electrode scraps.
- Fragment waste battery to form scraps
- Remove negative electrode using compressed air
- Treat scraps with solvent to obtain positive electrode scraps
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in the recycling of lithium-ion batteries to recover valuable materials and reduce environmental impact.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient recycling of positive electrode active material 2. Reduction of waste from discarded batteries
Benefits
1. Resource recovery from waste batteries 2. Environmental sustainability through recycling
Potential Commercial Applications
Recycling companies, battery manufacturers, and electronic waste management companies can utilize this technology for sustainable battery recycling practices.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art is the process of pyrometallurgical recycling of lithium-ion batteries, which involves high-temperature treatment to recover metals.
Unanswered Questions
What are the specific characteristics of the recycled positive electrode active material compared to the original material?
The article does not provide details on the specific properties or characteristics of the recycled positive electrode active material.
Are there any limitations or challenges in the recycling process that need to be addressed?
The article does not mention any potential limitations or challenges that may arise during the recycling process.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure relates to a method of recycling a positive electrode active material and a recycled positive electrode active material prepared by the same. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a method of recycling a positive electrode active material, the method including step A of fragmenting a waste battery including a positive electrode, a separator, and a negative electrode to form waste battery scraps; step B of removing the negative electrode by jetting compressed air onto the waste battery scraps; and step C of treating the waste battery scraps from which the negative electrode has been removed with a solvent to remove the separator and obtain positive electrode scraps, and a recycled positive electrode active material prepared by the method.
