A contribution to understanding the flotation behavior of lithium metal oxides and spheroidized graphite for lithium-ion battery recycling

Anna Vanderbruggen et al.

Summary: This study explores the challenges and issues in using froth flotation to treat end-of-life lithium-ion batteries, particularly focusing on the flotation mechanisms of cathode active particles. It reveals that contrary to common belief, lithium metal oxides can attach to air bubbles and exhibit varying contact angles, impacting the recovery process. The interaction with oil-based collectors and particle agglomeration also play a role in the separation and recovery of valuable materials.

Significance of a Solid Electrolyte Interphase on Separation of Anode and Cathode Materials from Spent Li-Ion Batteries by Froth Flotation

Ruiting Zhan et al.

Summary: In this study, froth flotation separation of aged anode and cathode composite materials from spent LIBs was successfully achieved after heat treatment. The XPS and contact angle measurements revealed the presence of a hydrophilic and oxygen-rich layer on the surface of aged anode materials, impacting the froth flotation process significantly.

Automated mineralogy as a novel approach for the compositional and textural characterization of spent lithium-ion batteries

Anna Vanderbruggen et al.

Summary: Mechanical recycling processes aim to separate particles based on physical and physico-chemical properties. Automated mineralogy is introduced as an analytical tool for monitoring and diagnosing LIB recycling approaches, providing important information on the characteristics of waste particles. The method is applicable for optimizing different separation unit operations in recycling of waste electronics and batteries.
