Abstract

The invention discloses a method for removing cationic impurities of calcium, magnesium, iron, sodium and potassium from cell grade lithium carbonate. The method comprises the following steps: 1, accessing a gas containing more than 99.5% of carbon dioxide to a mixed system of industrial lithium carbonate and redistilled water, and dissolving the carbon dioxide solid; 2, adding a lithium-containing amino acid chelating agent with the molar amount of 1-3 times a molar mount needed by the removal of the total content of the cationic impurities, reacting for several minutes with stirring, heating the obtained solution to decompose LiHCO3 into Li2CO3 which can be precipitated, filtering, and calcinating to obtain the cell grade lithium carbonate. The method has the following advantages: the chelating agent, which contains no impurity ions which contain sodium ions, potassium ions and the like and can cause secondary pollution, can be repeatedly used; contents of various cationic impurities in the prepared cell grade lithium carbonate are lower than standards of the cell grade lithium carbonate; and after the impurity removal, Li2CO3 generated by the decomposition of LiHCO3 cannot be washed or can be directly calcinated after washing once or twice, so the lithium loss caused by repeated product washing is reduced, and the lithium recovery rate in the impurity removal process can reach above 95%.

Description

A kind of method of removing calcium in battery-level lithium carbonate, magnesium, iron, sodium, potassium cationic impurity
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method of removing foreign ion, specifically refer to a kind of method of removing the cation impurities such as calcium in battery-level lithium carbonate, magnesium, iron, sodium, potassium, the field that is applied to prepare battery-level lithium carbonate.
Background technology
Li 2cO 3being most important lithium salts in lithium compound, is the main raw material of other high purity lithium compound of preparation and lithium alloy.Thereby Li 2cO 3production be the link of the most basic a, most critical in lithium industry.Lithium cell Industry Quick Development, impels the main raw material Li that produces anode material of lithium battery in recent years 2cO 3demand significantly increase.
At present, lithium compound all extracts from contain lithium salts lake or lithium ore both at home and abroad.Although because salt lake is different with composition of ores, the extraction process of lithium is different, the primary process of preparing Quilonum Retard can be summarized as successively:
Evaporate brine after concentrated or ore decomposition be precipitated as enrichment method Li → removal of impurities (removing successively the impurity such as Fe, Mn, Pb, Ca, Mg, Na, K) → transition Crude lithium Carbonate → dissolving afterwards deep impurity-removing → secondary sedimentation be Quilonum Retard.
In this process, mainly adopted precipitator method removal of impurities, effect is subject to the impact of formed difficulty soluble salt solubleness larger.Because partly precipitated has formed solubility colloid, make it remove effect and conventionally can only reach 10 simultaneously 2the order of magnitude of ppm.Especially the character of Ca, Mg and Li are quite similar, very obstinate.Therefore can only obtain industrial lithium carbonate, wherein still have the multiple cation impurities such as Ca, Mg, Fe, Na, K of certain content, can not be directly used in the preparation of lithium battery material.
Common battery-level lithium carbonate preparation method is by industrial lithium carbonate acidifying or logical CO at present 2make it form LiHCO 3solution, utilizes the further deep impurity-removing of various ion exchange resin or all ingredients, by heating, makes LiHCO 3decompose, recrystallization becomes Li 2cO 3after, then washing, purifying forms.The impurity-eliminating effect of these methods is unsatisfactory, and the various chemicals self that especially added also need to remove by washing, makes in large-scale industrial production, and in Quilonum Retard, the content of foreign ion is difficult to control, and quality product can not guarantee.
Summary of the invention
For the problems referred to above, the object of the invention is to design and a kind ofly by industrial lithium carbonate, prepared the method for effectively removing of multiple cation impurity in battery-level lithium carbonate technique.
Technical scheme of the present invention is:
A method of removing the cation impurities such as calcium in battery-level lithium carbonate, magnesium, iron, sodium, potassium, realizes by the following method:
1, after the ratio of 33-100:1 is uniformly mixed in mass ratio by redistilled water and industrial lithium carbonate, pass into content higher than 99.5%CO 2gas, hydrogenation forms LiHCO 3solution;
2, containing lithium propylhomoserin complexing agent can by polynary amino carboxy chelating agent as diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid, ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), teiethylene tetramine-hexacetic acid etc. and lithium hydroxide reaction make;
Can be by the polynary amino carboxy chelating agent of the analytical pure of easily buying as diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid, ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), teiethylene tetramine-hexacetic acid etc. containing the polynary complexone of lithium, 1:7.5 is dispersed in water in mass ratio, be heated to 60 ℃ above after, then to add mass percentage concentration be that 10% analytical pure lithium hydroxide aqueous solution dissolves completely it.
Volumetric molar concentration C=W/(M * the V of polynary propylhomoserin sequestrant in this solution), wherein W is the polynary amino carboxy chelating agent total mass number taking, and M is its molecular weight, and V is with dm 3overall solution volume for unit.
3, according to the composition analysis result of industrial lithium carbonate, to add in this solution want decationize content of impurities 1~3 times of molar weight containing the polynary aminocarboxylate chelator of lithium, after stirring reaction 1-10 minute, heat this solution and make LiHCO to 80-100 ℃ 3decompose and generate Li 2cO 3and separate out, take advantage of heat to filter with sintered glass funnel decompression, after then filtering, gained solid is dried, and in 400-600 ℃ of calcination 0.5-3 hour, can obtain battery-level lithium carbonate;
4, it be acid the filtrate of above-mentioned filtration gained being regulated to pH, and preferably pH is less than 3, makes the soluble chelating agent that combines foreign ion again change the polynary aminocarboxylic acid that is insoluble in water into, after filtration, can be recycled after washing.
The invention has the advantages that: the foreign ion that can not cause secondary pollution in sequestrant containing Na, K etc.; The Li of preparation 2cO 3in various impurity ion content all lower than battery-level lithium carbonate standard; After removal of impurities by LiHCO 3decompose the Li generating 2cO 3can be without direct calcination after washing or washing 1-2 time, thus reduced because cleaning product repeatedly causes the loss of lithium, and the rate of recovery of Li can reach more than 95%; Sequestrant can Reusability.
