Abstract

The invention discloses a method for extracting lithium from lithium-containing brine. The method comprises the steps that a host material with lithium-insertion activity is used for adsorbing lithium ions in the lithium-containing brine, and according to the lithium ion battery charging principle, lithium is separated out from a cathode of an electrolytic tank under the specific voltage range so as to extract lithium from the lithium-containing brine. By means of the method, a high-purity-grade lithium product can be directly manufactured through the lithium-containing brine, and thus the international competitiveness of domestic lithium products is improved. The extracting method is suitable for purification of lithium in seawater lithium brine, underground lithium brine, salt lake lithium brine and other lithium-containing brine with different components, and the lithium extracting effect of the method is obviously superior to that of traditional technologies for high magnesium-lithium-ratio lithium-containing brine difficult to separate. In addition, the method is short in process, and the main consumable item, namely, the adsorbent of the host material with lithium-insertion activity can be used in a regeneration cycle mode, so that article losses are reduced, and cost is lower.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal extraction, in particular to a method for extracting lithium from lithium-containing brine. Background technique [0002] Lithium metal and lithium salt products are widely used in modern industry, especially in high-tech fields. In recent years, with the rapid development of lithium-ion batteries, the application demand for lithium resources has been increasing year by year, and the development and utilization of lithium resources has a broader development prospect. . [0003] my country's lithium resources mainly come from ore lithium resources and brine lithium resources. The cost of extracting lithium from ore is relatively high, so lithium resource developers have begun to focus on the development of brine lithium resources. my country's brine lithium resources include seawater lithium brine, underground lithium brine, salt lake lithium brine, etc. Among them, salt lake lithium brine is mainly...
