Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/211128
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a method for producing a lithium compound, by which a high purity lithium compound can be efficiently produced from low quality lithium carbonate containing impurities such as salt water, the method comprising: mixing lithium carbonate, an acid such as an organic acid and water in a reaction tank 1 to produce an aqueous organic acid lithium compound solution containing an organic acid lithium compound; mixing the organic acid lithium compound and a metal hydroxide in a reaction tank 2 to produce an aqueous lithium hydroxide solution; returning an organic acid, which is regenerated by means of an electrochemical device from an organic acid metal compound by-produced when the aqueous lithium hydroxide solution is produced, to the reaction tank 1, and using this as the organic acid. Also provided is an apparatus for producing a lithium compound, the apparatus having the reaction tank 1, the reaction tank 2, the electrochemical device and a return pipe, each of which have a specific function.
