Beryllium hydroxide, Be(OH)₂, is an amphoteric hydroxide, dissolving in both acids and alkalis. Industrially, it is produced as a by-product in the extraction of beryllium metal from the ores beryl and bertrandite. The natural pure beryllium hydroxide is rare (in form of the mineral behoite, orthorhombic) or very rare (clinobehoite, monoclinic). When alkali is added to beryllium salt solutions the α-form (a gel) is formed. If this left to stand or boiled, the rhombic β-form precipitates. This has the same structure as zinc hydroxide, Zn(OH)₂, with tetrahedral beryllium centers.
A method for high-selectivity recovery of beryllium from lithium smelting beryllium-containing clinker
The application discloses a method for high-selectivity recovery of beryllium from lithium smelting beryllium-containing clinker, and belongs to the technical field of beryllium-containing solid waste resource utilization. After the lithium smelting beryllium-containing clinker is crushed, slurry is prepared, and under the shearing action, concentrated acid is slowly added dropwise to the slurry to precisely control the pH of the slurry in the range of 3.0-3.5 to perform reaction. After the reaction is completed, solid-liquid separation is performed to obtain beryllium-containing filtrate. The beryllium-containing filtrate is subjected to precipitation by using a sodium hydroxide solution to precisely control the end-point pH of the beryllium-containing filtrate in the range of 8.5-9.0, and a composite precipitate containing beryllium hydroxide and potassium sodium cryolite is obtained. The method completely breaks the traditional situation of 'waste production waste', not only realizes efficient separation of the highly toxic beryllium, but also directly converts the beryllium-containing solid waste into 'rich beryllium potassium sodium cryolite composite concentrate' with a main phase of crystalline potassium sodium cryolite and a beryllium grade of more than 5.5%, realizing double high-value extraction of trace metals (beryllium) and bulk minerals (cryolite).
