The present application belongs to the technical field of waste lead-acid battery resource and
lead iodide crystal preparation, and discloses a method for preparing
lead iodide crystal by reducing lead paste through a short wet process, which comprises the following steps: S1: collecting waste lead paste from waste lead-acid batteries and reducing the waste lead paste to obtain reduced lead paste; the reduced lead paste is placed in an
iodine salt solution and stirred to obtain a preliminary reaction solution; S2: adding a
hydroiodic acid solution to the preliminary reaction solution, and then performing
solid-liquid separation to obtain a crude
crystal; S3: dissolving the crude crystal in an
organic solvent, and then performing
solid-liquid separation; the obtained filtrate is a
lead iodide solution; S4: recrystallizing the lead
iodide solution, and then performing
solid-liquid separation to obtain a purified lead
iodide crystal. Through the improvement of the overall design of the reaction participants and the process flow, the preparation of the lead
iodide crystal can be realized through a short process, and the technical problems of long process steps, large
reagent input, and low purity of the lead iodide product can be effectively solved.
