The transformation of critical lithium ores, such as spodumene and brine, into battery-grade materials is a complex and evolving process that plays a crucial role in meeting the growing demand for lithium-ion batteries.
Battery Grade Lithium Materials The minerals required for batteries contain ten critical elements used for Li-ion battery technology. These elements include lithium, iron, manganese, cobalt, aluminum, natural graphite, copper, phosphorus, nickel, and titanium.
Scholars have examined the cellulose materials listed above, however, certain regenerated cellulose, including viscose, Tencel, and copper ammonia fiber, have yet to be used in lithium battery applications. Meanwhile, the same cellulose is also divided into different varieties, and the performance of different types will change somewhat.
To produce battery-grade lithium salts, the beneficiated-concentrated spodumene must be treated further, with or without heat, in the presence of acidic or alkaline media. As a result, various pyro and hydrometallurgical techniques have been explored.
Battery-grade lithium compounds are high-purity substances suitable for manufacturing cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries. The global production of cathode materials includes LiFePO 4, Li 2 MnO 4, and LiCoO 2, among others. Usually, the starting raw material is Li 2 CO 3, followed by lithium hydroxide monohydrate LiOH·H 2 O and LiCl .
Under the optimized conditions defined by the ratio of ore/HF/H 2 SO 4 as 1:3:2 (g/mL/mL) and a leaching time of 3 h, a lithium leaching efficiency as high as 96% was realized. The concentration of dissolved lithium and other elements in the obtained lixivium reached about 1.5 g/L.
