Step 2, in rich iron leachate, add reducing agent, be heated to 40 ~ 80 ℃, reaction 0.5 ~ 5 h, after reaction finished, cold filtration was removed impurity and is got rich Fe
2+Treatment fluid;
Step 3, to rich Fe
2+Add in the treatment fluid and contain oxalate precipitation reagent (saturated solution), simultaneously with the pH=5 of ammoniacal liquor control reaction system ± 0.5, after the reaction with the gained washing of precipitate, centrifugal, dry to get the ferrous oxalate presoma, it is prepared ferrous silicate lithium anode material as source of iron.
Volatile acid described in the step 1 of the present invention is one or more in hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, hydrobromic acid, the hydroiodic acid, the molar concentration 3 ~ 9mol/L of volatile acid.
Reducing agent described in the step 2 of the present invention is one or more in vitamin C, Fe powder, the Mg powder.
The oxalate precipitation reagent (saturated solution) that contains described in the step 3 of the present invention is in the oxalic acid, ammonium oxalate, sodium oxalate, potassium oxalate, potassium binoxalate, lithium oxalate one or more.
Advantage of the present invention embodies in the following areas: 1, the present invention adopts that reserves are abundant, cheap ilmenite is raw material, adopts the volatile acid of reusable edible as the medium that leaches ilmenite, reduces to pollute environmental friendliness; 2, adopt cheap Fe
3+Reducing agent and precipitation reagent are processed the ferrous oxalate presoma that rich iron leachate prepares metal ion mixing, and it is prepared ferrous silicate lithium anode material as source of iron, final doped metallic elements is evenly distributed in the ferrous silicate lithium anode material, solved the problem that doped metallic elements is difficult to be mixed, can improve the conductivity of ferrous silicate lithium anode material, and then improve its chemical property; In a word, the invention provides that a kind of raw material reserves are abundant, technological process is simple, energy consumption is little, cost is low, eco-friendly method, leach ilmenite by the reusable edible volatile acid and prepare the ferrous oxalate presoma, and it is prepared ferrous silicate lithium anode material as source of iron.
