Abstract
A waste lithium-ion battery roasting apparatus includes: a transport mechanism including a cylindrical body, the cylindrical body containing an internal atmosphere that is a reducing atmosphere or a low-oxygen atmosphere; a heating mechanism that heats an outer wall of the cylindrical body to increase an internal temperature of the cylindrical body, and controls heating temperatures individually at which the heating mechanism heats the outer wall at different respective positions in a transporting direction in which the transport mechanism transports a waste lithium-ion battery; and a controller that controls the heating temperatures, at which the heating mechanism heats the outer wall, in accordance with a transporting speed at which the transport mechanism transports the waste lithium-ion battery, such that a temperature increase rate of the waste lithium-ion battery transported inside the cylindrical body is a predetermined temperature increase rate.
