The invention discloses a method for recycling residual
lithium in reaction mother liquid of an
electrode material by a hydrothermal method.
Lithium hydroxide is added into the reaction mother liquid,
solid and liquid are separated after a heating reaction, after a reaction of precipitate and
phosphoric acid, the
solid and liquid are separated again, and a clarified solution is obtained and usedas a
raw material of the
electrode material by the hydrothermal method;
lithium sulphate is separated from the first separated clarified solution through an
ion exchange membrane, a remaining solventis concentrated and recycled to obtain a
lithium sulfate aqueous solution to pass through a bipolar membrane, a lithium
ion and a
sulfate ion are separated and combined with a
hydroxide ion and a
hydrogen ion obtained by water
electrolysis correspondingly, and a
lithium hydroxide solution and a
sulfuric acid solution are finally obtained correspondingly; and the concentrated
lithium hydroxide solution is used as the
raw material of the
electrode material by the hydrothermal method. According to the method for recycling the residual lithium in the reaction mother liquid of the
electrode material by the hydrothermal method, the application range is wide, the
raw material cost of hydrothermal method process production is greatly lowered, no new raw materials are added, the recycling effect isgood, the process is simple,
cost performance is high, and application and promotion in industrial production are facilitated.
