Lithium carbonate as one of the most important basic lithium salt, widely used in lithium-ion batteries, mainly used to synthesize lithium-ion battery cathode material. Currently, the preparation of high purity lithium carbonate is mainly through extracting lithium from lithium ore and salt lake brine, and then through purification process.
Brine production until 2013 by Chemetall (Germany), FMC (USA), and SQM (Chile) has increased at an annual rate of 4–5% per year, whereas up to a growth rate of 35% per year is expected for the lithium carbonate production from China, due to the significant expansion of its lithium battery industry. Table 3.6.
The escalating demand for lithium resources, particularly within the lithium-ion battery sector, heightened the demand of the lithium carbonate industry. A critical requirement arises for high-quality battery-grade lithium carbonate within the industrial settings.
Introduction Lithium carbonate stands as a crucial raw material owing to its multifaceted applications, notably in the production of electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries. The escalating demand for lithium resources, particularly within the lithium-ion battery sector, heightened the demand of the lithium carbonate industry.
Lithium carbonate (Li 2 CO 3), as one of the most important basic lithium salts, has a high demand in the lithium ion battery industry, including the preparation of cathode materials, lithium metal, and electrolyte additives.
Currently, the preparation of high purity lithium carbonate is mainly through extracting lithium from lithium ore and salt lake brine, and then through purification process.
