The most abundant form of this mineral is known as α-spodumene, a packed aluminosilicate which occurs in the monoclinic form, exhibiting a density of 3.16 g cm −3.This form is not suitable for the direct hydrometallurgical extraction of lithium because of its unfavorable structural characteristics, making the chemical exchange of the element …
Therefore, the key to the extraction of lithium from spodumene is destroying the aluminosilicate structure. Traditionally, the naturally occurring α-spodumene needs to be roasted at 1000 °C to be converted to β-spodumene, and is then decomposed with acid. This method greatly increases energy consumption and environmental pollution.
In recent years, several methods have been reported to extract lithium (Li) from spodumene. However, the majority of them still require the transformation of the naturally occurring spodumene phase (α) to the more reactive crystalline phase (β) by calcination at 1100 °C. To address the economic drawbacks and high greenhouse gas emission of this …
Extraction of Lithium from Spodumene ID# 2019-4998. Spodumene Quartz. Technology Summary. The current process of lithium extraction requires roasting the spodumene at a temperature of 1050 C to transform the natural crystalline form of spodumene a to form ß which can be leached at a high temperature. This is a costly, energy-extensive process.
