The rising demands for critical metals and the environmental impact of solid waste disposal have increased interest in recycling of spent lithium-ion batteries (LiBs). This study was focused on hydrometallurgical recycling of LCMO type cathode batteries for the recovery of critical metals (lithium, cobalt, and manganese). The process involves sulfuric acid leaching in the presence of a reducing agent (H 2 O 2 ) followed by the precipitation recovery of critical metals. The influential parameters like pulp density, H 2 SO 4  concentration, H 2 O 2  addition, agitation time, and temperature were optimized, yielding &gt;98% leaching in 2.0 M H 2 SO 4  with 4 vol.% of H 2 O 2  at a moderate temperature of 50°C. Reaction kinetics revealed that the leaching was governed by the mixed-control process. Furthermore, the separation and recovery of metals from leach liquor was conducted by simple precipitation techniques, where KMnO 4 , C 2 H 2 O 4 , and Na 2 CO 3  were used as precipitating reagents to recover MnO 2 , CoC 2 O 4 , and Li 2 CO 3 , respectively.
