The present disclosure belongs to the field of lithium ion battery recovery and discloses a method for selectively recovering valuable metals in waste lithium batteries. The method includes the following steps: adding a sulfur-containing compound to waste lithium battery for calcination and water leaching to obtain lithium carbonate solution and filter residue; adding sulfuric acid and an iron-containing compound to the filter residue for leaching, performing solid-liquid separation, and taking solid phase to obtain manganese dioxide and graphite residue; extracting and reverse extracting liquid phase from the solid-liquid separation to obtain nickel cobalt sulfate solution and manganese sulfate solution. The method of the present disclosure selectively extracts lithium in waste ternary cathode materials by calcination and water leaching, and realizes selective low manganese leaching based on the principle that divalent manganese can reduce the high oxide of nickel and cobalt in the leaching stage.

Provided is a method of manufacturing high-purity, high-quality manganese sulfate which can be immediately used for manufacturing a lithium ion secondary battery from manganese sulfate waste liquid of a wasted battery. Since impurities are removed from the manganese sulfate waste liquid by using sulfides causing no secondary contamination in the manganese sulfate waste liquid and the manganese sulfate is manufactured by performing evaporation concentration through heating, the manufacturing method is very environment-friendly and economical. Since the manganese recovering process improving the manufacturing yield of the manganese sulfate and the waste water treatment process capable of recycling the source materials and discharging waste water are integrated, the manufacturing method is very efficient and environment-friendly. The manufacturing method is applied to the recycling industry, and thus, it is possible to obtain effects of preventing environmental pollution and facilitating recycling the resources.

A process for generating a metal sulfate that involves crystallizing a metal sulfate from an aqueous solution to form a crystallized metal sulfate in a mother liquor with uncrystallized metal sulfate remaining in the mother liquor; separating the crystallized metal sulfate from the mother liquor; basifying a portion of the mother liquor to convert the uncrystallized metal sulfate to a basic metal salt; and using the basic metal salt upstream of crystallizing the metal sulfate. So crystallized, the generated metal sulfate may be battery-grade or electroplating-grade.

Provided is a method for purification of manganese pregnant leach solution (PLS) using solvent extraction (SX). The method broadly comprises the steps of providing a partially purified aqueous pregnant leach solution (PLS), using an SX load stage to form a first organic mixture which forms a loaded organic phase comprising all of the manganese from the PLS, performing two stages of SX scrubbing to form a third organic mixture which is substantially free of impurities, performing SX stripping to transfer the manganese content of the scrubbed organic phase into a clean aqueous phase, and producing high purity manganese sulphate monohydrate (HPMSM) crystals from the clean aqueous phase.
