摘要

The demand is growing for effective and sustainable recycling of spent lithium cobalt oxide (LCO) batteries from consumer electronics to address resource depletion and environmental challenges. This work introduces a one-step solid-state sintering method, achieving an impressive capacity recovery rate of 94.9% for spent LCO cathode materials. Remarkably, the regenerated LCO achieves a capacity retention of 77.3% after 100 cycles at a cutoff voltage of 4.6 V, outperforming commercial LCO. These improvements are attributed to the formation of an amorphous surface coating and bulk doping, both introduced via a lithium-ion superconductor precursor. By providing a simple, scalable, and efficient solution for LCO regeneration, this research offers critical insights and strategies for the high-value recovery of cathode materials.
