In the context of the booming development of new energy sources around the world, demand for lithium resources, represented by new energy electric vehicles and clean energy storage, is increasing. Recently, new breakthroughs have been made in key technologies for the extraction and separation of lithium extraction resources in salt lakes in Qinghai, which has attracted the attention of the energy industry. Li Lijuan's research team from the Qinghai Salt Lake Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences successfully overcame the bottleneck of efficient separation technology for lithium, sodium, and potassium ions in precipitated lithium mother liquor. Compared with similar technologies at home and abroad, this technology is currently the only solution that simultaneously satisfies the four goals of “economic viability, efficient recycling, clean production, and high product quality”, providing key technical support for the high-quality development of China's salt lake lithium industry. Expert assessments show that the technology has reached the leading international level, and its industrial application is expected to provide important support for efficient recycling and high-value utilization of salt lake lithium resources throughout the process.
