Resumo
In this present work, cobalt and lithium from spent lithium ion batteries Samsumg® and HP® was recovered in hydrometallurgical process. Citric acid was leachant and H2O2was reductant agent. Two recycling routes was developed using leaching solution of cobalt and lithium: an electrochemical route; and a synthetic route. On electrochemical route, cobalt oxides (LiCoO2and Co3O4) and hydroxides electrodeposited on nickel substrate using galvanostatic technique. High current density of -0,45 Acm-2used for electrodeposition due to great stability of cobalt and lithium complex. Electrodeposition carried out using charge densities of -250, -300 and -350Ccm-2. Electrochemical recycling route presented low efficiency of electrodeposition (~1,5%) and recycled material, tested as pseudocapacitors, presented irrelevant capacitances (lower than 1 Fg-1). Synthetic recycling route was carried out using a sol-gel method for LiCoO2and Co3O4preparation. To form sol-gel precursor, leaching solution of cobalt and lithium citrate was used. Sol-gel precursor calcined at 250°C, 350 °C, 450 °C and 650 °C formed a mixed cobalt oxides compounds (LiCoO2and Co3O4). Mixed cobalt and lithium oxides tested as catalyst for methylene blue photodegradation presented good catalytic activity. Mixed cobalt oxides calcined at 450 °C degraded 90% of methylene blue after 10 hours and 100% after 24 hours of photocatalysis. Sol-gel precursor calcined at 850 °C formed only LiCoO2. Electrochemical properties of recycled cobalt and lithium oxide were studied using cyclic voltammetry. Recycled LiCoO2is a promising material for lithium ion batteries cathodes. The contribution of this work is that it presents a means to produce valuable materials having electrochemical and catalytic properties from recycled batteries trough a spent lithium ion batteries without polluting the environment
