Problems solved by technology

The feature of this method is that no additional chemical reagents are needed for the separation of magnesium and lithium, but the energy consumption is high, the recovery rate of lithium is low, and the lithium carbonate produced contains many impurities; the magnesium hydroxide obtained by the hydration of magnesium oxide has very poor filtration and washing performance. Moreover, it contains a large amount of boron; it should be pointed out that 100 tons of low-concentration hydrochloric acid should be produced as a by-product for every 1 ton of lithium carbonate produced. If the place of origin cannot digest it, it will be very difficult to store and transport; (2) Carbonate precipitation method (2) Industrial soda ash Na 2 CO 3 When added to brine, the following reaction occurs: Na 2 CO 3 +2Li + -Li 2 CO 3 ↓+2Na + This method is used to extract lithium salt (Li 2 CO 3 ), this method is not suitable for the brine with high ratio of magnesium to lithium, because it is very uneconomical to remove magnesium with a large amount of soda ash before extracting lithium; (3) the adsorption method utilizes artificial resin to directly add in the brine to absorb Li + , the resin utilization rate of this method is low, and the adsorption effect is lost after only 2 to 3 times, so this method is not economical, and large-scale production is still a problem; (
