Recovery Of Nickel From Spent Nickel-Cadmium Batteries Using A Direct Reduction Process

Recovery of Metal Values from Spent Nickel-cadmium Rechargeable Batteries by Solvent Extraction Route

Spent Nickel cadmium batteries are classified as hazardous waste due to the presence of toxic cadmium in high concentration. Recycling of metal value by environmentally friendly process is the best option to obtain economical advantage and prevent environmental pollution. In the present investigation, a metal separation scheme is proposed for recovery of cadmium, nickel and cobalt from the leac...

Closed-loop Recycling of Nickel, Cobalt and Rare Earth Metals from Spent Nickel-metal Hydride- Batteries

Nickel-metal hydride batteries (Ni-MH) are storers of electrochemical energy, which have a higher specific storage capacity than lead or nickel-cadmium batteries. The demand for Nickel-metal hydride batteries is increasing rapidly since their market launch in the early 1990's. Today there is no suitable and sustainable recycling process to recover nickel, cobalt and rare-earth metals. The disca...

Leaching Process for the Recovery of Valuable Metals from Spent Lithium- Nickel-cobalt-manganese-oxide-based Lithium-ion Batteries

This study focused on the leaching process for the recycling of Li, Ni, Co, and Mn from the LiNixCoyMnzO2 (NCM) cathodes of spent lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Eh–pH diagrams were used to analyze suitable leaching conditions. Operating variables, such as the concentration of H2SO4 (0.5–2.5 M), concentration of H2O2 (0–1 vol%), temperature (10–50 °C), stirring speed (400–800 rpm), and solid/liqu...

recovery of nickel from spent catalysts by hydrometallurgical method

there are no appreciable amounts of nickel resources in iran; therefore, secondary resources of this element are to be more considered in future. spent nickel catalysts that are used in various industrial processes are one of them. for example nickel catalyst that is used in hydrogenation of edible oil have large amounts of nickel and they are generally supported on porous materials like silica...
