The invention discloses a preparation method of ammonium bifluoride. The method comprises steps as follows: a, dilute ammonia water and ammonium bifluoride mother liquor are mixed to adsorb gas containing fluorine and silicon, and a mixed solution is obtained; b, the mixed solution and filter-press residues obtained in Step d are mixed for slurry making and filter-press separation, and a filtrate and a silica by-product are obtained; c, ammonia is introduced into the filtrate; d, slurry is subjected to filter-press separation, and an ammonium fluoride filtrate and filter-press residues are obtained; e, the ammonium fluoride filtrate is subjected to vacuum concentration; f, concentrated slurry is dissolved, the pH value of the solution is adjusted with hydrogen fluoride, and cooling crystallization is performed; g, ammonium bifluoride crystals are filtered, separated and dried, and the ammonium bifluoride product is obtained. With the adoption of the method, the utilization rate of fluorine and ammonia is increased, the gas containing fluorine and silicon is changed into the ammonium bifluoride product with the high economic value in the phosphoric acid production process, the production cost is low, the economic benefit is significant, meanwhile, the purity and other indexes of the product meet the requirement for superior products, and the method is suitable to be popularized and applied in the field.
