Abstract: The invention relates to a method, an apparatus and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for debugging a solid-state disk (SSD) device. The method is performed by a processing unit of a single-board personal computer (PC) when loading and executing a function of a runtime library, to include: receiving a request to drive a General-Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) interface (I/F), which includes a parameter required for completing a Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) command; issuing a first hardware instruction to the GPIO I/F to set a register corresponding to a GPIO test data input (TDI) pin according to the parameter carried in the request for emulating to issue the JTAG command to a solid-state disk (SSD) device, wherein the single-board PC is coupled to the SSD device through the GPIO I/F; issuing a second hardware instruction to the GPIO I/F to read a value of the register corresponding to the GPIO TDI pin; and replying with a completion message in response to the request.

Abstract: A process of recovering metals from waste lithium ion/Ni—H/Ni—Cd batteries, wherein the waste batteries are calcined and sieved to generate an ash containing metals and metal oxides. The process includes subjecting the ash to a first dissolution etching treatment, a first filtration treatment to obtain a filtrate containing Cd ions which are crystallized as cadmium sulfate, a second dissolution etching treatment for the filtered solid, and a second filtration treatment to obtain a second filtrate. Fe+3, Al+3 and rare earth metal ions in the second filtrate are precipitated as hydroxides by adding a base to the second filtrate. The remaining solution was extracted and counter-extracted to obtain aqueous solutions of Co and Ni ions, which were subjected separately to a electrolysis to deposit Co and Ni metals. Li ions in the residue solution from the electrolysis of Ni was precipitated as carbonate by adding a soluble carbonate salt.

Abstract: Two concentration techniques, adsorption and electrodialysis, are combined to enrich lithium ions in brine from a level of several ppm to about 1.5%. At beginning brine is subjected to an adsorption, so that Li content is increased to 1200-1500 ppm, followed by two stages of electrodialysis in series to increase Li ions to about 1.5%. Li depleted solution from the second stage of electrodialysis having a Li content of 1200-1500 ppm is recycled to the first stage of electrodialysis as a feed. Li depleted water from the first stage of electrodialysis is subjected to a residue recovery electrodialysis to form a Li enriched solution of 1200-1500 ppm, which is also recycled to the first stage of electrodialysis as a feed. Li depleted solution from the residue recovery electrodialysis is recycled as a feed of the adsorption, so as to sufficiently recover Li ions from brine.
