The subject process relates generally to producing an aqueous solution through a simple but highly effective chemical reaction. The aqueous solution is composed of a blended solution with water and an added solubilizer for the chemical reaction. The results produce an ionic solid and an alkaline liquid solution which are useful commercial products, and various applications including but not limited to use as a CO.sub.2 capture solvent.

Disclosed is a method of producing high-purity lithium carbonate and barium sulfate from discarded lithium secondary batteries, including: a first process for producing high-purity lithium phosphate from a discarded battery; and a second process for producing lithium sulfate from the lithium phosphate and producing lithium carbonate and barium sulfate from the lithium sulfate. The second process has steps of (a) producing a liquid mixture of lithium phosphate and sulfuric acid, (b) obtaining lithium sulfate by condensing the liquid mixture, (c) dissolving the lithium sulfate in water or a sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, depositing phosphoric acid as lithium phosphate, and performing solid-liquid separation (d) depositing lithium carbonate and performing solid-liquid separation to obtain lithium carbonate, (e) finely grinding the lithium carbonate and classifying the particles, (f) controlling a particle size and shape by dissolving edges of particles or minute particles, (g) performing solid-liquid separation, and (h) depositing barium sulfate.
