Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing high-purity lithium carbonate by causticizing and carbonizing coarse lithium carbonate lime, which comprises the following steps: 1) adding water into the coarse lithium carbonate to remove soluble salt, stirring the separated solid with water and quicklime to react, and carrying out solid-liquid separation to obtain a lithium hydroxide solution; 2) concentration; 3) adding an impurity removal agent into the concentrated solution, stirring for reaction, and performing solid-liquid separation to obtain a refined solution; 4) absorbing carbon dioxide by one part of the refined solution, carbonizing, and filtering to obtain a lithium bicarbonate solution; and 5) mixing and reacting the lithium bicarbonate solution with the other part of the refined solution to obtain the high-purity lithium carbonate. According to the invention, the traditional gas-liquid reaction process of carbonization and lithium precipitation of carbon dioxide absorbed by lithium hydroxide is converted into liquid-liquid reaction, the tolerance of impurities in the solution can be increased, the crystallization is mild, the purity and granularity of the product are easy to control, the inclusion of the impurities is not easy to form, the washing procedure is reduced, the procedures of ion exchange and lithium bicarbonate pyrolysis are omitted, and the production cost is reduced. The investment cost and the evaporation load are greatly reduced, and large profits can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of lithium salts, in particular to a method for producing high-purity lithium carbonate by caustic carbonization of crude lithium carbonate lime. Background technique [0002] Lithium, as an "energy upstart in the 21st century", is the lightest metal in nature, and has the characteristics of high electrical conductivity and strong chemical activity. At the same time, lithium is also the battery material with the highest energy density, known as "energy metal" and "an important element that drives the world forward". High-purity lithium carbonate has been widely used in batteries, medicine, military industry, aerospace and other fields, and is a raw material for the preparation of other high-purity lithium salts. The preparation of high-purity lithium carbonate has become one of the research hotspots in recent years. However, there are many problems in the preparation and purification process ...
