What is Solvent Extraction?

Solvent extraction is a selective separation process that utilizes the difference in solubility of metal ions between two immiscible liquid phases—typically an aqueous and an organic phase. It enables the targeted isolation and purification of valuable metals such as lithium, cobalt, and nickel from complex mixtures.

Application in Lithium Battery Recycling

In the recycling of lithium-ion batteries, solvent extraction is primarily used to recover valuable metals from black mass, a fine powder obtained by shredding and processing spent batteries. TYIC’s high-performance extraction equipment supports each critical stage of this recycling process, enhancing recovery efficiency while ensuring environmental compliance.

Key Process Steps:

Lixiviation
The black mass is treated with a leaching solution to dissolve metal ions. TYIC’s high-efficiency mixing systems optimize material contact and improve metal dissolution rates.
Solid-Liquid Separation
The resulting leach solution contains lithium, cobalt, nickel, and impurities. TYIC offers modular separation systems designed for high throughput and low energy consumption.
Purification
Pre-treatment steps remove undesired ions, preparing the solution for solvent extraction. TYIC’s expertise in micro-interface control ensures high selectivity in the separation process.
Extraction par solvant
The purified solution is mixed with an organic solvent that binds selectively to the target metal ions. TYIC’s micro-interface extraction systems provide superior phase separation efficiency with minimal solvent loss—ideal for continuous industrial operations.
Stripping
The loaded organic phase is treated to release the metal ions into a new aqueous phase, usually by adjusting pH or adding a stripping agent. TYIC’s systems offer precise reaction control to maximize recovery and minimize contamination.
Récupération des métaux
The extracted metal ions are recovered from the aqueous phase through precipitation, crystallization, or electrolysis, resulting in high-purity products ready for reuse in battery manufacturing.
