Problems solved by technology

The current lithium compounds in my country mainly come from the extraction of lithium from salt lakes and ores. However, the lithium compounds prepared from salt lakes are difficult to use in high-end fields due to the large number of associated impurity ions and the limited purity. Restrictions, mining costs, and regional characteristics affect production capacity and cannot be released; how to reasonably develop and recycle existing lithium resources is an important topic that requires long-term research and development in the lithium-related industry in the future

Abstract

The invention discloses a lithium-aluminum-contained electrolyte comprehensive recycling method, and belongs to the technical field of aluminum electrolysis preparation. The method comprises the following steps that firstly, a lithium-aluminum-contained electrolyte and water are mixed, inorganic acid is added to adjust pH of the system to be smaller than or equal to 2, and the stirring reaction is carried out to obtain slurry, wherein the lithium-aluminum-contained electrolyte comprises, by mass percentage, 1%-15% of lithium fluoride and 80%-90% of kryocide; and secondly, aluminum salt is added into the slurry obtained in the step one, the temperature rises to 75 DEG C to 95 DEG C for the reaction, filtering is carried out, and obtained crystals are kryocide. The method solves the technical problems which trouble the production of the electrolytic aluminum industry at present, the labor efficiency of electrolytic aluminum production is improved, the production cost is reduced, the service life of electrolytic aluminum equipment is prolonged, stable production of the electrolytic aluminum industry is promoted, and obtained product quality is superior to the national standard.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aluminum electrolysis preparation, and in particular relates to a method for comprehensive recycling of lithium-containing aluminum electrolytes. Background technique [0002] In recent years, electrolytic aluminum production enterprises generally face the problem that the lithium impurities contained in the alumina raw materials are relatively high, resulting in a correspondingly large increase in the lithium content in the electrolyte. The lithium fluoride content of existing enterprises has exceeded 3%, and the highest has reached 9% to 10%. The electrolyte system with high lithium salt content leads to low temperature of the electrolytic production tank, poor alumina dissolving ability, and many deposits at the bottom of the electrolytic tank, which makes the operation of the electrolytic process difficult, the stability of the aluminum electrolytic tank is poor, and the technical conditions are diffi...
