The invention relates to a method for upgrading the black mass of spent alkaline and salt batteries mainly comprising manganese and zinc, and also potassium hydroxide and carbon, which is characterized in that it comprises the following steps: - incorporating the black mass in coking coal or in a mixture of coking coals, the amount of black mass incorporated being less than 10% by weight of the mixture, - pyrolytic coking of the mixture obtained in the previous step, and - obtaining a composite coke comprising manganese. The invention also relates to a composite coke comprising manganese obtained by such a method. . Lastly, the invention relates to the use of this composite coke in a metal melting furnace such as a blast furnace or a cupola furnace.

METHOD FOR RECOVERING THE BLACK MASS OF ALKALINE AND SALINE BATTERIES, COKE PRODUCED ACCORDING TO SAID METHOD, AND METHOD FOR USING THE COKE
The invention relates to a method for recovering the black mass of used alkaline and saline batteries. The method is characterized in that black mass is incorporated into coke produced by pyrolysis in a coking oven. The invention can be used in cupola furnaces or blast furnaces during the manufacture of cast iron.
A method for recycling used cells such as saline cells, alkaline cells, button cells and used rechargeable batteries, includes the step of introducing the cells and/or rechargeable batteries as feedstock into a metal melting furnace, at the charging door thereof. The cells and/or rechargeable batteries are subjected to a compression operation in order to remove the electrolytes contained in the cells and/or rechargeable batteries, prior to introducing the cells and/or rechargeable batteries into the metal melting furnace.

A method for upgrading used or rejected electric battery cells, which include upgradable compounds, such as iron, zinc, manganese, copper, and fixed and volatile carbon, and heavy metals and dangerous compounds. The used or rejected battery cells are introduced as a load into a furnace for melting metal, such as a cupola furnace, a free arc furnace, or an induction furnace. A device for purifying gases produced by the furnace and for capturing and removing noxious elements, such as mercury, chlorides, and fluorides, and heavy molecules such as dioxins, furans, and aromatic substances, is provided in a discharge route of the hot gases, downstream from the melting furnace.
