    The "International Conference on Green and High-value Utilization of Salt Lake Resources", organized by Qinghai Institute of Salt Lakes (Chinese Academy of Sciences), co-organized by Institute of Process Engineering (Chinese Academy of Sciences), Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Qinghai Provincial Bureau of Foreign Experts Affairs, Institute of Earth Environment (Chinese Academy of Sciences), and Qinghai Experts United Association will be held online from September 6th to 8th , 2023 in Xining, Qinghai, China.

    The potassium, lithium, magnesium, boron and other resources are rich in salt lakes, and these resources have a huge role in promoting the sustainable development of modern agriculture, new energy, new materials and other industries by rational development and utilization. The potassium chloride produced by salt lake resources accounts for about 27% of the total global potassium chloride production, and the global salt lake lithium resources reach about 2/3 of all proven lithium resources that can be developed. In 2025, the global demand for lithium products is expected to be 600,000 tons (Li2CO3), and more than 50% of the total lithium product consumption will come from salt lake related lithium productions. In addition to potassium and lithium resources, the resources include magnesium, sodium, boron and others in the salt lakes are also high-quality chemical raw materials. Since the majority of salt lakes are located in arid and semi-arid areas with fragile ecology in the world, the higher standards are required in ecological environment protection for development of resources. These key issues need to be solved urgently including the ecological security and resource guarantee with resource utilization, efficient extraction of salt lake resources, and the high-value utilization of mineral resources.

            The theme of this conference is “Ecological Salt Lake, Green Development, High -value Utilization”, which aims to promote the rational development and utilization of salt lake resources, and strive to build a new pattern of ecological and environmental friendly, high-quality and sustainable salt lake development. The conference will focus on three themes i.e. ecological security and resource guarantee of salt lake resource, green and efficient separation of salt lake resources, and preparation of high-end chemicals from salt lakes. The conference will conduct extensive and in-depth academic exchanges, which can promote the scientific and technological progress in the development of salt lake’s industry. The international conference is open to researchers, managers, technicians and students from domestic and foreign research institutes, universities and enterprises.
