  • Publication number: 20260145957
    Abstract: Provided is a method for extracting and recovering high-purity lithium carbonate and iron phosphate from a spent lithium battery material. The method includes the following steps. In a first extraction stage, the iron phosphate feature data is input into an iron phosphate quality analysis model to obtain a first quality index at time T1+a. Whether the extraction device is in an abnormal extraction state at time T1+a is determined. If the abnormal extraction state occurs, an extraction adjustment instruction is generated, and the extraction device is adjusted. If not, a second extraction instruction is generated, and whether the extraction device is in an abnormal state at time T2+b in a second extraction stage is determined. If the extraction device is in the abnormal extraction state, a second extraction adjustment instruction is generated, and the extraction device is adjusted. If not, extraction continues until extraction of lithium carbonate is completed.

  • Patent number: 12332388
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for determining 224Ra in a sediment by using a pulse ionization chamber emanometer, which belongs to the technical field of analysis and measurement. A pulse ionization chamber emanometer (PIC), a new emanometer, is used. Based on the half-life characteristics of different radon isotopes, one can separate the 220Rn activity from the total counts by dual counting. The resulting 220Rn measurement then can be used to determine the 224Ra activity in sediment according to the principle of secular radioactive equilibrium.
