Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although the above method can extract lithium resources simply and greenly, there are two deficiencies: one is that the solubility of lithium carbonate is low, and the existence of carbonate radicals in carbonate-type brine limits the concentration and enrichment of lithium ions, thus limiting the concentration and concentration of lithium ions in brine. The large-scale extraction of lithium in the medium reduces the extraction efficiency of lithium; the second is that it is impossible to talk about the comprehensive utilization of the valuable elements potassium and boron in carbonate salt lakes

Abstract

The invention provides a method for comprehensive utilization of potassium, boron and lithium in carbonate-type salt lake brine. By introducing an acidification process, the type of brine is converted from carbonate type to chloride type, so that the composition of brine is simplified, thereby effectively solving the problem of Solved the technical problem of joint extraction of potassium, boron and lithium from carbonate-type salt lake brine. The method adopts an acidification process to adjust the pH value of the brine, and extracts boric acid from the acidified brine by solvent extraction; the raffinate enters the sodium salt pool, evaporates in the sun to precipitate sodium salt, and then enters the potassium salt pool to precipitate potassium mixed salt; it is purified by flotation Potassium chloride is produced from potassium mixed salt; lithium carbonate is extracted from the potassium-enriched mother liquor by precipitation method, and the old brine after lithium extraction is returned to the acidification pool for recycling.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of comprehensive utilization of salt lake brine resources, in particular to a method for extracting potassium chloride, boric acid and lithium carbonate from carbonate-type salt lake brine rich in potassium, boron and lithium. Background technique [0002] my country's Tibet is rich in carbonate-type salt lake resources, such as Bangor Co, Dangxiong Co, Zabuye Chaka, Guojialin Co and other carbonate-type salt lakes. Carbonate-type salt lakes are rich in inorganic salt-forming elements such as sodium, potassium, boron, lithium, chlorine, sulfate, and carbonate. The content of calcium and magnesium in carbonate-type salt lakes is extremely low, and there is no difficulty in the separation of magnesium and lithium in brines with high magnesium-lithium ratios, which is very conducive to the extraction of lithium carbonate. Therefore, carbonate-type salt lakes are high-quality resources for lithium extraction from brines ...
