The invention discloses a resource recycling method for a waste lithium ion power battery. The method comprises the following process steps: carrying out electro discharge treatment, dismantling treatment, incineration treatment, polymetallic material crushing treatment, polymetallic material acid leaching treatment, extracting treatment, sedimentation treatment, flue gas secondary combustion treatment, flue gas rapid cooling treatment, flue gas alkali spraying treatment, flue gas urea spraying treatment, flue gas adsorption treatment and the like on the waste lithium ion power battery. The resource recycling method for the waste lithium ion power battery can fully recycle valuable metals from the waste lithium ion power battery, improve the recovery and utilization rate of metal to the maximum extent, and realize the recycling of metal resources; the flue gas can be directly discharged after being subjected to the process treatments such as the secondary combustion treatment, rapid cooling treatment, alkali spraying treatment, urea spraying treatment and adsorption treatment, the environmental protection index during the process of recycling and utilization of the waste lithium ion power battery is improved, no secondary pollution is generated, cleaner production is realized, and the economic benefits and environmental benefits are significant.
