Method for pretreating lepidolite before roasting
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lepidolite treatment, and particularly relates to a method for pretreating lepidolite before roasting.
Background
Lithium carbonate is used as a basic raw material of most lithium products and is widely applied to the fields of glass, ceramics, metallurgy, chemical industry, electronics, medicine, batteries and the like. In recent years, the development of the lithium ion battery industry is more and more rapid, and battery grade lithium carbonate as a positive electrode material and an electrolyte material of a lithium battery is a focus of attention. While lithium batteries are rapidly developing, the demand for battery grade lithium carbonate is increasing. Currently, spodumene and lepidolite are generally used as raw materials for preparing lithium carbonate, and a salt lake lithium salt method is also used for preparing lithium carbonate. The sulfate method is a relatively simple and feasible method, the lepidolite ore and the sulfate are mixed and then roasted to extract lithium, the lepidolite cannot be pretreated before roasting, the lepidolite sulfate method has high requirement on the grade of the lepidolite, and the lepidolite is relatively rejected for low-grade lepidolite.
Yichun as Asian Li contains rich lepidolite ore, the lepidolite ore in the Yifeng area has good market lepidolite because of low grade and coarse grain size, but the low-grade ore is not accepted by various companies, namely, the recovery rate of the low-grade ore is low, and the energy consumption is larger. Therefore, the method for researching the pretreatment process before the calcination of the lepidolite by improving the prior art has great significance in improving the conversion rate of the lepidolite, reducing the cost of the lepidolite extraction process, enabling the low-grade lepidolite to be accepted by the market, and increasing the selection of more raw materials for companies.
For example, patent No. CN108557848A (a method for preparing battery-grade lithium carbonate by using lepidolite) includes the following specific steps: 1) Mixing and heating the raw materials to 850-1100 ℃ to obtain lithium sulfate clinker; 2) Ball-milling to 200-300 meshes, adding water with the temperature of 50-60 ℃, and carrying out multistage filtering and washing to obtain lithium sulfate brine; 3) Adjusting pH to 9-11 with calcium hydroxide, adding sodium carbonate, filtering to remove impurities to obtain primary impurity-removed solution; adding ammonium oxalate, filtering and removing impurities to obtain secondary impurity-removed liquid; extracting with an extractant to obtain a purified solution, and reacting primary lithium carbonate; 5) And grinding and crushing the primary lithium carbonate to 500-600 meshes, and performing ion exchange to obtain the battery-grade lithium carbonate. For another example, patent No. CN113636579A (a novel process for preparing lithium carbonate by lepidolite sulfate roasting method) includes the following steps: ball-milling lepidolite, uniformly mixing the lepidolite with sodium potassium sulfate mixed salt, an auxiliary agent and calcium carbonate according to a certain proportion, granulating by using a granulator, then sending the obtained mixture to a rotary kiln for roasting, cooling the roasted material, wet-milling by using a ball mill, feeding the cooled roasted material into a leaching kettle, heating by using circulating water for water leaching, adding the obtained lithium sulfate mother liquor into a saturated sodium carbonate solution after neutralization, impurity removal, evaporation and concentration, and performing lithium precipitation reaction to obtain a crude lithium carbonate product; and stirring the crude lithium carbonate for two times, drying and crushing to obtain the battery-grade lithium carbonate. For another example, patent No. CN112142081A (a method for preparing battery grade lithium carbonate using lepidolite) specifically includes: adding a defluorinating agent to defluorinate lepidolite after roasting and leaching, removing calcium and magnesium through chelating ion exchange resin after concentrating to obtain refined lithium solution, adding the refined lithium solution into refined sodium carbonate solution of which the calcium and magnesium are removed through chelating ion exchange resin, reacting, and settling to obtain crude lithium carbonate and lithium-settling mother liquor; and (3) concentrating and evaporating the lithium precipitation mother liquor, adding the frozen salt precipitation into the refined lithium solution for recycling, washing lithium from the coarse lithium carbonate, precipitating, centrifugally separating, drying, crushing by air flow, mixing and packaging to obtain the battery-grade lithium carbonate. No pretreatment of lepidolite was performed by any of the above techniques.
