The invention discloses an industrial production method for preparing nanometer lithium iron phosphate by adopting a solvent thermal method. The industrial production method comprises the following steps that phosphorus source compounds, iron source compounds, lithium source compounds, carbon sources and solvents are proportionally and sequentially added into a sealed reaction kettle and are uniformly mixed and stirred, the stirring temperature rising reaction is carried out in inert atmosphere, primary products of the lithium iron phosphate are obtained, solid and liquid separation is carried out, washing and drying are carried out, the roasting is carried out in the inert atmosphere, and the lithium iron phosphate products are obtained. Waste water and waste organic solvents generated in the production process are recovered and reutilized through reduced pressure distillation. The obtained product of the lithium iron phosphate materials has fine primary particle size and narrow particle size distribution, in addition, the distribution is uniform, the conductivity is good, the electrochemical performance of products is good, the product batch consistency is good, the operation of a recovery method is simple, the control is easy, the energy consumption is low, and the method is suitable for industrial production and application.
