Accueil / extraction de spodumène
Lithium in spodumene is tightly bound by coulombic forces inside the silicon-oxide and aluminum-oxide polyhedron structure. 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 …
