The invention discloses a method for leaching
lithium form
coal ash. The method includes the steps of 1), a
sintering process, namely weighing the
coal ash,
sodium carbonate and
calcium carbonate in the
mass ratio of 1:0:1-1:0:0.8:1, performing even mixing in a
corundum crucible, placing the mixture in a
muffle furnace for
roasting for 60-100 minutes at the temperature
ranging from 1000DEG C to 1200DEG C, cooling to indoor temperature and
grinding the mixture to 200 mesh with a ball
grinding mill; 2), a leaching process, namely evenly mixing a well-ground clinker with a
sodium carbonate solution 3-8% in concentration in the
solid-to-
liquid ratio of 1:15-1:25 prior to transferring to a
colloid grinder, subjecting the mixture to mechanical
grinding for 30 minutes prior to transferring to a high-pressure kettle, cooling mixed liquid in the high-pressure kettle after high-
pressure cooking for 20-60 minutes at the temperature
ranging from 100DEG C to 150DEG C is completed prior to performing extraction
filtration to obtain
lithium leaching liquid. The method for leaching the
lithium form the desiliconized
coal ash through alkali
sintering-dilute alkali
dissolution is put forward for the first time, broad research prospects for extracting the lithium form the coal ash are achieved, a foundation is laid for research in developing lithium resources and application strategies, and meanwhile,
industrial utilization valve of the coal ash is improved.
