Technical purpose Pyrometallurgy--Carbonthermal reduction (Process B) is an industrial process where reducing carbon is mixed and roasted with valuable compounds in a rotary furnace at high temperatures (600-1000 oC), using graphite as the reducing agent. This method effectively reduces and separates reduction products such as Ni (Nickel), Co (Cobalt), MnO (Manganese Oxide), and allows for the selective recovery of lithium resources in the form of Li2CO3 through water leaching. It is commonly applied in the production of LIB (Lithium-ion Battery) electrode materials and is crucial for the recycling and valorization of metals from spent LIBs. |
