    Qinghai Institute of Salt Lakes, Chinese Academy of Sciences

            Qinghai Institute of Salt Lakes (QISL)Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS)founded in 1965, is the only scientific research institute dedicated to comprehensive salt lake research in China. QISL has been focusing on the national demand for agricultural potassium fertilizers and high-end products based on lithium, boron, and magnesium. QISL mainly engages in research relating to salt lake resources and chemistry, formation and evolution of salt lakes, as well as the foundation, application basis and technical research and development of salt lake resources and utilization. At present, there are three labs in the institute, i.e. Laboratory of Salt Lake Geology and Environment, Laboratory of Salt Lake Resources Chemistry, and Salt Lake Resource Development Engineering Research Center. In addition, QISL has a pilot base for the comprehensive utilization of salt lake resources, the salt lake chemical analysis and testing center, and information service center. 

           Over the past 50 years QISL has fulfilled more than 300 scientific research achievements, including 57 national, provincial and ministerial awards, and two national awards. The major scientific and technological contributions achieved include: (1) basically completed the investigation and evaluation of China's salt lake resources; (2) laid the theoretical system of salt lake geology and salt lake chemistry in China; (3) made a foundation for the Qinghai-Tibet Railway to successfully cross the saline crust over salt lakes; (4) laid the technical foundation of China's potash fertilizer industry; (5) pioneered the scientific method and mature technology of extracting lithium from salt lake brine with a high magnesium-to-lithium ratio; (6) provided complete sets of technologies for Chinese enterprises to develop potassium resources overseas for the first time.

            The institute has trained a number of qualified researchers, of whom 4 were elected academicians of CAS. Currently there are 237 employees, including 37 professors, 67 associate professors and 129 graduate students. QISL offers Ph.D. study in geology and chemistry and master degree study in chemistry, geology and chemical engineering & technology. There are two platforms for postdoc research in chemistry and geology. 

            The institute is now publicly recruiting outstanding talents and scholars of relevant disciplines who possess research abilities and innovation awareness across the world to strengthen its capability in basic research and engineering technology to fuel original innovation as well as provide scientific and technical support to foster salt lake industry base.
