  • Publication number: 20230042034
    Abstract: A process for removal of aluminium and iron in the recycling of rechargeable batteries comprising providing a leachate from black mass, adding phosphoric acid (H3PO4) to said leachate and adjusting the pH to form iron phosphate (FePO4) and aluminium phosphate (AlPO4), precipitating and removing the formed FePO4 and AlPO4, and forming a filtrate for further recovery of cathode metals, mainly NMC-metals and lithium.
    Type: Application
    Filed: October 17, 2022
    Publication date: February 9, 2023
    Inventors: Mahmood ALEMRAJABI, Ingrid KARLSSON, Ragnar SJÖDAHL, Emma NEHRENHEIM, Martina PETRANIKOVA, Cristian TUNSU

  • Publication number: 20220009793
    Abstract: A process for generating a metal sulfate that involves crystallizing a metal sulfate from an aqueous solution to form a crystallized metal sulfate in a mother liquor with uncrystallized metal sulfate remaining in the mother liquor; separating the crystallized metal sulfate from the mother liquor; basifying a portion of the mother liquor to convert the uncrystallized metal sulfate to a basic metal salt; and using the basic metal salt upstream of crystallizing the metal sulfate. So crystallized, the generated metal sulfate may be battery-grade or electroplating-grade.
