In the at least one group of hollow fiber membrane components, the outer side (shell layer) of the membrane is a lithium bis (fluorosulfonyl) imide solution, the inner side (tube pass) of the membrane is a elutriation agent, and the transmembrane flux of the elutriation agent is adjusted through the pressure difference between the two sides of the membrane and the membrane material, so that the supersaturation degree of the outer side of the membrane is in different functional regions to control the particle size distribution and morphology of crystals, thereby obtaining a high-purity and high-quality lithium bis (fluorosulfonyl) imide product.
The purpose of the invention is realized by the following technical scheme:

A2. aging the crystallization solution in a crystallizer;
A3. after curing, obtaining the lithium bis (fluorosulfonyl) imide product through decompression and suction filtration.
In the step A1, the lithium bis (fluorosulfonyl) imide solution is contacted with a solvent in at least one group of hollow fiber membrane modules to realize nucleation and growth, and a crystal product is carried to enter a crystallizer for curing. The curing time is 2 to 6 hours, the crystallizer is started to stir during the curing process, and the stirring speed is 200 to 500rpm, preferably 300 to 400rpm.
The stirring speed is low, and the uniform distribution of supersaturation can not be quickly realized by adding the elution agent, so that the growth rates of the crystals in all directions are different, and the length-diameter ratio is increased; the stirring speed is too high, so that the collision degree between crystals is increased, the crystal form of the crystals is deteriorated, the number of broken crystals is increased, and the particle size distribution is enlarged.
And the elutriation agent returns to the elutriation agent storage container after passing through the at least one group of hollow fiber membrane modules to form a circulation loop.
