  • Publication number: 20240218483
    Abstract: The present application discloses a lithium extraction method for an alkaline solution, in which a lithium adsorption material is used in an alkaline environment. Lithium ions in the alkaline solution are adsorbed, the lithium adsorption material is replaced with an alkaline high-lithium low-impurity solution, and then an acid solution is used for desorption, so that a high-lithium salt solution having higher lithium content can be obtained. Lithium concentration can reach 5 g/L or more, and the high-lithium salt solution can enter a bipolar membrane system for electrolysis, thereby preparing an alkaline high-lithium low-impurity solution and an acid solution for replacement and desorption of the lithium adsorption material. In the method provided by the present application, lithium in an alkaline solution is adsorbed by resin, and the lithium is preliminarily separated from sodium and potassium.

  • Publication number: 20240183002
    Abstract: A method for lithium adsorption in a carbonate- and/or sulfate-containing solution, comprising using an aluminum-based lithium adsorbent for adsorption of lithium ions in the carbonate- and/or sulfate-containing solution, after the adsorption is saturated, using a weakly acidic high-concentration salt solution to transform the adsorbent, desorbing the transformed adsorbent by means of a low-concentration salt solution or water, and entering the next cycle for operation.

  • Publication number: 20240026494
    Abstract: A method for recovering lithium from a lithium precipitation mother liquor, the method using the following cycle steps including adsorption, displacement, desorption and transformation: a. mounting a lithium-sodium separation resin in a resin column, and adding the lithium precipitation mother liquor to the resin column for adsorption, wherein the adsorption rate can reach 90% or more; b. after adsorption, washing the resin with water, displacing the resin with a lithium-salt-containing solution to wash out residual sodium from the resin; c. after displacement, desorbing the resin by means of an acid solution to obtain a solution with a high lithium content and a low sodium content, which solution has passed desorption criteria; and d. after desorption, carrying out reverse transformation on the resin by means of a transformation solution in order to ensure that no bubbles appear and then reduce the adsorption effect during the adsorption process.
