Title:
HIGH PURITY LITHIUM CARBONATE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/131664
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a high purity lithium carbonate (A) which is obtained from a crude lithium carbonate (a) and has a Ca content of not more than 5 ppm and an Mg content of not more than 4 ppm. The high purity lithium carbonate can be obtained through a first step in which an aqueous lithium hydrogen carbonate solution is obtained by introducing carbon dioxide into an aqueous slurry that contains the crude lithium carbonate (a), a second step in which the pH of the aqueous lithium hydrogen carbonate solution is adjusted to 8.0 or more by addition of an alkaline compound, and then a chelating agent is added into the resulting solution, and a third step in which the aqueous lithium hydrogen carbonate solution obtained by the second step is heated so as to obtain an aqueous solution containing the lithium carbonate (A), and then the lithium carbonate (A) is obtained by solid-liquid separation.
