Removing Mg/Ca Before Crystallization: Better Lithium, Fewer Headaches
Impurity Removal (Mg/Ca) Prior to Crystallization When refining lithium from brines, the presence of divalent cations, such as magnesium (Mg²⁺) and calcium (Ca²⁺), poses a persistent challenge. These ions interfere with crystallization, contribute to scaling, and reduce product purity. Left unchecked, they complicate downstream lithium carbonate or hydroxide crystallization, leading to operational headaches, increased reagent […]
