Lithium has a low melting point, high boiling point, most negative potential, light mass, etc.<\/span>,<\/span>It is widely used in new energy vehicles, nuclear industry, aviation, medical, and other fields. Lithium is the most important basic raw material for new energy industry.<\/span>,<\/span>be known as \"<\/span>21<\/span>New Energy for the Century\". In order to accelerate the realisation of the strategic goal of \"Carbon Neutral, Carbon Peak\".<\/span>,<\/span>China has vigorously developed the lithium new energy industry<\/span>,<\/span>Demand for lithium feedstock is increasing year on year<\/span>,<\/span>Lithium's growing strategic position<\/span>,<\/span>A new round of competition for mineral resources has been launched<\/span>[<\/span>. Currently<\/span>,<\/span>The main sources of domestic lithium resources are salt lake lithium and ore lithium.

During the beneficiation of lithium mica<\/span>,<\/span>Belt filters are commonly used in the dewatering of lithium mica concentrates.<\/span>,<\/span>Concentrate moisture is generally greater than<\/span>18%,<\/span>There are features such as high moisture of lithium mica concentrate, large equipment footprint and low processing efficiency.
