Problems solved by technology

However, the traditional sulfuric acid method generally prepares lithium sulfate first, and then prepares lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide through transformation, and then transforms lithium salts based on lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide to prepare other lithium salts, such as using lithium carbonate plus hydrochloric acid to prepare anhydrous Lithium chloride and nitric acid are added to prepare anhydrous lithium nitrate. Traditionally, spodumene is used to prepare anhydrous lithium chloride and anhydrous lithium nitrate. The process is relatively long and the production cost is relatively high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of lithium salt, in particular to a method for preparing lithium salt by extracting lithium from spodumene. Background technique [0002] Industrial lithium metal smelting methods are mainly divided into two categories: one is to extract lithium from brine, enrich lithium in brine, and finally transform to produce lithium salt products such as lithium hydroxide monohydrate, lithium carbonate, and lithium sulfate; The method is to extract lithium from the ore, mainly by fire or wet treatment of the lithium-containing ore-spodumene and lepidolite, destroying its original gangue structure, and making the Li in it 2 O is dissolved in the form of soluble lithium salts, and lithium salts such as lithium hydroxide monohydrate, lithium carbonate, and lithium sulfate can be obtained. However, because most of domestic salt lake brines have the characteristics of low magnesium-lithium ratio, it is difficult to develo...
