The feasibility of using low-environmental-impact leaching media to recover valuable metals from lithium ion batteries (LIBs) has been evaluated. Several deep eutectic solvents (DES) were tested as leaching agents in the presence of different type of additives (i.e., H2O2). The optimization of Co recovery was carried out by investigating various operating conditions, such as reaction time, temperature, solid (black mass) to liquid (DES) ratio, additive type, and concentration. Leaching with final selected DES choline chloride (33%), lactic acid (53%), and citric acid (13%) at 55 °C achieved an extraction yield of more than 95% for the cobalt. The leaching mechanism likely begins with the dissolution of the active material in the black mass (BM) followed by chelation of Co(II) with the DES. The results obtained confirm that those leaching media are an eco-friendly alternative to the strong inorganic acids used nowadays.

Three major components in a cathode of aqueous rechargeable lithium batteries are the active material, the polymer binder, and the carbon conductive additive. The stability of each component in the battery is the key to long service life. To evaluate the stability of the carbon component, we introduce here a quick and direct testing method. LiMn2O4 is chosen as a typical active material for the preparation of the cathode, with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF), and a commercial carbon, which is chosen among Acetylene black, superP, superP-Li, Ketjen black 1, Ketjen black 2, Graphite, KS-6, splintered glassy carbon, and splintered spherical carbon. This method reveals the correlation between the electrochemical stability of a carbon and its physical and structural properties. This helps researchers choose the right carbon component for a Li-ion cathode if they want the battery to be robust, especially at near full state of charge.

The objective of this paper is to show that annealing lithiated transition metal oxide (LTMO) precursors obtained by the sol-gel method at insufficiently high temperatures may not produce the intended pure cathode active materials required in lithium batteries. In this work, LiMn1.5Ni0.5O4 which is a potential cathode active material in the 5 V-class is prepared by the solgel method. The precursor material was obtained when the solid gel was dried and heated at different temperatures in the range between 200 °C and 900 °C for 4 hours. It was observed that on heating the precursor material at least at 500 °C for 4 hours the material produced was LiMn1.5Ni0.5O4 in the present form as proven by the x-ray diffractogram (XRD). On heating at temperatures below this, the formation of LiMn1.5Ni0.5O4 was uncomplete and at temperatures above 500 °C the intensity of the peak at 2q = 18° decreases. The noise level also increased at temperatures above 500 °C.
