Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In order to reduce the loss of lithium in waste solutions of chemico-metallurgical lithium carbonate production, it is suggested to extract lithium from these solutions in the form of poorly soluble hydroxodialuminate under the action of sodium and potassium aluminates. Technological tests showed that the proposed method ensures almost complete isolation of lithium from waste solutions of lithium carbonate production.
