Abstract

The method for reclaiming lithium and potassium from high-lithium-potassium anode carbon slag or high-lithium-potassium electrolyte is carried out in the following steps: (1) grinding high-lithium-potassium anode carbon slag or high-lithium-potassium electrolyte as raw material and mixing with concentrated sulfuric acid solution Heating to 280-500°C for reaction; (2) add water to leach the reacted material, filter and separate the primary filtrate; (3) adjust the pH value to 6-8 when the temperature of the primary filtrate is ≤30°C, and obtain the secondary filtrate by filtering and separating (4) cooled to -5~-10°C, Na 2 SO 4 Precipitate; filter and separate the filtrate three times; (5) add Na after heating to 90-100°C or boiling 2 CO 3 , Li 2 CO 3 Precipitated and separated Li by filtration 2 CO 3 and four times of filtrate; (6) four times of filtrate is cooled to -5~-10°C, Na 2 SO 4 Precipitate; filter and separate K 2 SO 4 solution, concentrated or dehydrated to obtain K 2 SO 4 ·xH 2 O or K 2 SO 4 product. The process flow of the method of the invention has low cost, is easy to operate, hardly produces new pollution while fully recovering waste materials, and has good promotion prospects.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of aluminum electrolysis and waste recycling, in particular to a method for recovering lithium and potassium from high-lithium-potassium anode carbon slag or high-lithium-potassium electrolyte. Background technique [0002] In the process of industrial aluminum electrolysis production, Al 2 o 3 It is the raw material for aluminum electrolysis. The electrolytic cell uses a carbon anode made of petroleum coke. In the aluminum electrolytic cell, aluminum electrolysis Al 2 o 3 The chemical reaction for producing metal aluminum is: [0003] 2Al 2 o 3 +3C→4Al+3CO 2 . [0004] In the aluminum electrolytic production process, when the raw material Al used 2 o 3 Contains CaO, when Al is produced, these impurities are transformed into CaF2 and enter the electrolyte; therefore, the CaF in the electrolyte 2 It is usually not artificially added; in my country, some electrolytic aluminum plants also use Li 2 O ...
