Lithium carbonate is a white, odorless salt composed of lithium, carbon, and oxygen, with the chemical formula Li2CO3. It is used in various applications, such as in the production of lithium-ion batteries, ceramics, special glasses, lubricants, and in the synthesis of chemical compounds.
SQM Lithium, a Chilean company, is one of the world's leading producers of high purity lithium carbonate, with a minimum purity of 99%. This company extracts lithium from the brine of the Salar de Atacama region, located in northern Chile.
Once the lithium has been extracted, SQM Lithium processes the brine at its production plant in the city of Antofagasta, where different chemical processes are carried out to obtain high-purity lithium carbonate. This product is then sold to various customers around the world for use in different industrial applications, such as the manufacture of batteries for electric vehicles and electronic devices.
