Abstract

The invention provides an industrial method for producing battery-grade lithium carbonate or high-purity lithium carbonate. The industrial method comprises the following steps of: carbonizing; placing a carbonate-type lithium source in a hydriding reaction kettle for one time or more than two times of carbonization to obtain a wet lithium carbonate product, wherein the content of Li2O in the lithium source is 5.0-40.3% (w / w); and drying the wet lithium carbonate product obtained by one-time carbonization, thus obtaining battery-grade lithium carbonate; or drying the wet lithium carbonate product obtained by more than two times of carbonization, thus obtaining high-purity lithium carbonate. The method provided by the invention can continuously produce battery-grade lithium carbonate or high-purity lithium carbonate on large scale, is low in energy consumption and environmentally friendly and has strong practical value.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing high-purity lithium carbonate, in particular to a method for industrially producing high-purity lithium carbonate and battery-grade lithium carbonate. Background technique [0002] Lithium is the lightest known silver-white alkali metal with the smallest nuclear radius. Because lithium and its compounds have many unique excellent properties, they are widely used in glass, ceramics, lubrication, electronics, metallurgy, medicine, refrigeration, aerospace, etc. field. With the rising demand for clean energy, lithium energy will likely have a profound impact on human life, and it is also known as the "new energy resource of the 21st century". [0003] Lithium carbonate is an important lithium salt with a wide range of uses and strong market application value. According to GB / T 11075-2003, GB 10576-89, YS / T 582-2006 and other relevant national standards and industry standards, lithium carbonate can be divided into...
