Method for recovering aluminum residue with controlled particle size, and use thereof

Abstract

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of battery recycling, and discloses a method for recovering an aluminum residue with a controlled particle size, and use thereof. The method includes the following steps: crushing and sieving a positive electrode sheet of a waste power battery, then, crushing at −198° C. to −196° C. with addition of liquid nitrogen to obtain a granular material; roasting, cooling, and grinding the granular material, adding water, shaking, settling into layers, and separating the layers to obtain a positive electrode active powder layer, a transition layer, and an aluminum residue particle layer; and shaking the aluminum residue particle layer and the transition layer for a second time, settling into layers, and collecting aluminum residue particles and a positive electrode active powder.
