中油綠能所配合綠色能源研發政策,進行鈦酸鋰(Li4Ti5O12, LTO)負極材料生產計畫,建立鈦酸鋰材料製備實驗室與鋰電池電性量測實驗室,以及鋰鈦氧材料試量產工廠,從混漿/噴霧造粒產粉製程,燒結處理及過篩除水包裝,可日產100公斤,年試量產量18公噸,將成為本公司儲能材料生產重要里程碑。本計畫包括試量產材料製備程序改善、鋰鈦氧化物材料改質、放大生產試驗開發與全電池應用。試量產放大生產試驗開發部分,目前已完成年產能約18噸,材料全產線建置,本年度除完成整線製程最適化之外,改善減少二氧化鈦等原物料殘留,將可助於後續電池性能提升及改善電池製程加工性,並送多家電池廠進行後續試驗,進行鋰鈦氧全電池製作最適化。鋰鈦氧儲能模組載具應用部分,完成風光式(風能/太陽能)LED路燈實地應用,電動48V堆高機實機應用,電容量為200Ah,與原鉛酸電池組相較,不但充電時間縮短,充電時亦無瀰漫酸氣情況,整體性能優於鉛酸電池組。
In order to coordinate the policy for development of green energy, Green Technology Research Institute (GTRI),CPC corporation, built the pilot plant to produce lithium titanium oxide (LTO, Li_4Ti_5O_(12)) and related material research/characterization labs. The daily and year production capacities of the pilot plant can achieve 100 kg/day and 18 t/year, respectively, including the preparation of precursor slurry, spray-drying process, thermal annealing treatment, mechanical screening and water removal/package process. In this study, the Pilot plant production line in CPC was optimized and improved the reactivity to minimize the amount of unreacted TiO_2, leading to better performance. Moreover, the as-prepared LTO powders were also evaluated the electrochemical performance and the full lithium ion battery (LIB). The fabricated LIBs have been successfully integrated into the wind/solar powered LED Street light and applied for electric stackers. Compared with the traditional Lead-acid battery, the LTO based LIBs exhibit faster charge time and superior energy storage performance.
