Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing lithium hydroxide, which comprises the following steps: S1, dissolving raw lithium carbonate with sulfuric acid to obtain lithium sulfate solution; S2, using lithium hydroxide to regulate that pH of the solution to be 6.6-8.5; adding lithium carbonate to precipitate and filtering to obtain a first filtrate; S3, filtering by adopting a membrane filterdevice to obtain a second filtrate; S4, adopting resin adsorption to obtain resin adsorbed liquid; S5, adding water to dilute, and passing through a bipolar membrane to obtain dilute brine, acid waterand alkali water; the alkali water being a lithium hydroxide solution; S6, after evaporating and concentrating alkali water and crystallizing, obtaining the crystal being lithium hydroxide monohydrate, and the purity being more than 99wt%. A material liquid with extremely low impurity content is obtained by acid-base reaction precipitation impurity and multi-stage filtration treatment, membrane filtration and resin adsorption treatment using crude lithium carbonate as raw material, alkali water is obtained by bipolar membrane separation, and high-quality and high-purity lithium hydroxide is obtained by evaporation and concentration crystallization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation technology of high-purity lithium hydroxide, mainly relates to the preparation of high-purity lithium hydroxide by using a bipolar membrane after impurity removal and filtration of lithium carbonate, and belongs to the high-purity lithium technical field upstream of new energy lithium batteries. Background technique [0002] Lithium is the metal with the smallest density in nature, it has strong chemical activity, it is in the first main group of the periodic table of elements, and it is the first metal element. Lithium is currently the most widely used metal element. As a basic raw material, it plays an important role in modern industry and is an energy metal that various industries are competing to use. Among them, lithium hydroxide and lithium carbonate are the two forms most used in industry. Lithium hydroxide is mainly used in chemical raw materials, battery industry, chemicals and other industries, and of c...
