Abstract
The present disclosure provides a lithium recycling method for a waste lithium metal battery, wherein the lithium metal in the anode is transferred to the cathode through overdischarge, thereby allowing the lithium metal to react with the cathode active material and be converted into an over-lithiated oxide, which blocks the high reactivity of the lithium metal with moisture.
