Apparatus for continuous electric dehydration of positive electrode active material

Abstract

An apparatus for continuous electric dehydration of a positive electrode active material, includes a first electrode; a transfer member on which a positive electrode active material is seated, moves to continuously transfer the positive electrode active material to the drum; and a guide device, which is disposed to surround a part or all of the drum and in which the positive electrode active material comes into close contact between the guide device and an outer circumferential surface of the drum when the transfer member moves between the guide device and the outer circumferential surface of the drum and which includes a second electrode for generating an electric field caused by a potential difference between the first electrode and the second electrode so that a cleaning solution remaining in the positive electrode active material introduced by the transfer member is dehydrated by using electrophoresis due to the electric field.
