Abstract:To efficiently separate and recover LiCoO2 and graphite in Co-enriched powders recovered from spent lithium-ion batteries, the method of increasing the difference of floatability of LiCoO2 and graphite was used. Fenton reagent was used as a modifier to modify the surface of Co-enriched particles. The modification process was analyzed by XPS and the modified products were characterized by TEM. The improved effect of floatability of the Co-enriched powders was tested by the floatation experiment. The results show that Fenton reagent can effectively remove the organic impurity on the surface of Co-enriched particles and increase the difference of surface wettability of LiCoO2 and graphite, which improves the floatability of Co-enriched powders. After modification the enrichment ratio of Co reaches 1.41 and the recovery of Co element reaches 99%.
