In addition, the method extracts valuable element lithium in the industrial wastewater, has the effect of waste resource utilization, and plays a good demonstration role in improving the value of bulk solid waste of the fly ash and resource utilization.
In the spray roasting step, most of aluminum impurities in the lithium-containing wastewater are converted into an alumina form by setting the roasting temperature to be 450-900 ℃, and other metal impurities are all in a chloride form. In the deep impurity removal step, phosphate is added to enable aluminum ions, calcium ions and magnesium ions remaining in the first lithium-enriched liquid to react with the phosphate to generate water-insoluble precipitate, and the precipitate is removed through filtration to obtain a second lithium-enriched liquid; the impurity content in the second lithium enrichment solution is obviously reduced, the second lithium enrichment solution mainly contains lithium chloride, and the lithium chloride is converted into lithium carbonate precipitate by adding carbonate into the second lithium enrichment solution.

In a preferred embodiment of the method for preparing lithium carbonate by using lithium-containing wastewater according to the invention, the lithium-containing wastewater is wastewater from the production of alumina by fly ash, in particular industrial wastewater from the production of alumina by fly ash acid method. The method provided by the invention provides a new lithium resource by using the wastewater from the production of alumina by fly ash as a raw material, can recover valuable element lithium in industrial wastewater, has the effect of waste resource utilization, and has good demonstration effects on value improvement and resource utilization of bulk solid waste of fly ash.
