Abstract: In a method for recovering a lithium precursor from a lithium secondary battery, an electrode powder is prepared from a lithium secondary battery. A calcium compound is mixed with the electrode powder to prepare a cathode active material mixture. The cathode active material mixture is reductively treated to form a preliminary precursor mixture. A lithium precursor is recovered from the preliminary precursor mixture. Accordingly, the lithium precursor is obtained with high purity without a complicated leaching process and an additional process resulting from a wet-based process using an acidic solution.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an artificial foot including a foot body part, a toe part rotatably disposed at a first end of the foot body part, a toe joint connecting the foot body part and the toe part to each other, and an adapter disposed on a top of a second end of the foot body part. According to the artificial foot, since the toes of the artificial foot rotate when a wearer walks, when the artificial toes come in contact with the ground, energy is stored due to the load by the weight and the toes kick off the ground as much as the elastic energy accumulated by the spring, so the toe members of the artificial foot do not drag on the ground. Accordingly, the wearer does not need to lift up the hip joints, so the wearer can walk similar to normal walking.
