During the high temperature digestion process, about 80% of lithium in the anhydrite ore enters the sodium aluminate solution, and 20% enters the red mud. In the red mud separation and washing process, the equilibrium concentration of lithium in the sodium aluminate solution is reduced along with the reduction of the concentration of caustic alkali, and part of lithium in the solution is separated out in the red mud separation process and enters the red mud again, so that the lithium content in the discharged red mud is high. According to investigation of Li in red mud discharged by alumina enterprises in Henan province 2 The O content is usually 0.1-0.2%, and for an enterprise producing 100 ten thousand tons of aluminum oxide annually, the lithium resource amount taken away by discharged red mud per year exceeds 3000tLEC (lithium carbonate equivalent), so that the method causes extremely high yieldAnd large resource waste.
At present, no relevant report of extracting lithium by taking lithium-containing red mud as a raw material exists in the prior art.
