Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of membrane separation and resource recovery, and specifically relates to a bipolar membrane electrodialysis device for simultaneously capturing carbon dioxide, extracting lithium and producing lithium carbonate. Background Art

[0002] Carbon dioxide capture technology is a key strategy to achieve greenhouse gas emission reduction and an important part of achieving low-carbon economic transformation in the future. Chemical absorption based on organic amine absorbents is currently the main route for capturing carbon dioxide from flue gas in coal-fired power plants, but its thermal desorption process consumes a lot of energy, resulting in high carbon dioxide capture costs. Patent CN114534288A discloses a carbon dioxide capture system and method based on membrane electrodialysis, which utilizes hydrogen ions dissociated by bipolar membranes under the action of an electric field to achieve regeneration of organic amine absorbents and desorption of carbon dioxide. However, this process requires the integration of four electrodialysis membrane modules, and the operation process is complicated and costly. In addition, none of the above schemes achieves the reuse of carbon dioxide.

[0003] With the global emphasis on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the new energy industry has developed rapidly. As a key material for the manufacture of lithium-ion batteries, the extraction of lithium resources and the production of lithium carbonate are also receiving increasing attention. Liquid resources such as spodumene leachate, brine, oil and gas field wastewater, and seawater contain a large amount of lithium ions and have a high resource utilization value. Electrodialysis technology can achieve the selective extraction of lithium ions from liquid resources, but it is mainly suitable for low-concentration systems and needs to be combined with nanofiltration, precipitation, electrodeposition and other technologies to achieve lithium ion concentration and lithium carbonate production, resulting in severe restrictions on the application of electrodialysis in the field of lithium ion extraction. Therefore, the development of a new electrodialysis process that produces lithium carbonate while achieving lithium ion extraction is of great significance to the extraction and utilization of lithium resources in liquid resources such as spodumene leachate, brine, oil and gas field wastewater, and seawater. In view of this, taking advantage of the fact that carbon dioxide can react with lithium ions to form lithium carbonate, while lithium carbonate is insoluble in water, a new bipolar membrane electrodialysis process has been developed for the simultaneous capture of carbon dioxide, lithium extraction and production of lithium carbonate. The flue gas treatment is combined with the extraction of lithium ions from liquid resources such as spodumene leachate, brine, oil and gas field wastewater, and seawater. While capturing carbon dioxide, lithium ions are extracted from wastewater to produce lithium carbonate that can be used in the preparation of battery positive electrode materials, thus achieving waste treatment with waste. This is of great significance to the development of carbon dioxide capture, lithium resource recovery, and the new energy industry. Summary of the invention
