Provided is a sorting method for valuable resources, including a thermal treatment step of thermally treating a target containing valuable resources, to melt aluminum and separate a melt, a pulverizing step of pulverizing a thermally treated product remaining after the melt is separated, to obtain a pulverized product, a magnetic sorting step of sorting the valuable resources from the pulverized product by a magnetic force, and a wind force sorting step of sorting one valuable resource from another valuable resource in the valuable resources by a wind force.

Separation method for valuable resources

A method for recovering a valuable material from a lithium ion secondary battery includes: a heat treatment step of performing heat treatment on a lithium ion secondary battery; a crushing step of crushing a heat-treated object obtained through the heat treatment step; a first stage of classification step of classifying a crushed object obtained through the crushing step based on a classification point of 1.2 to 2.4 mm, and a second stage of classification step of classifying an intermediate product and a fine particle product obtained on a fine side in the first stage of classification step based on a classification point of 0.3 mm or less; and a dry magnetic separation step of repeating one time or more a step of performing dry magnetic separation on an intermediate product obtained on a coarse side in the second stage of classification step and performing dry magnetic separation again.
