The invention discloses an extraction and
boron removal method for
lithium-containing brine. The extraction and
boron removal method comprises the following steps that 1, acidification is performed, wherein the pH value of a
lithium chloride water solution containing
boron is acidized to 1-3 by using
hydrochloric acid; 2, mixing and extraction are performed, wherein
isooctyl alcohol and 2-
octanol are mixed according to the ratio of 10-18 to 1 to obtain an
octanol mixed solution; the
octanol mixed solution is mixed with
kerosene to prepare a mixed extracting agent, the
kerosene accounts for 30-70% of the total volume of the mixed extracting agent, and standing is performed for 1-3 hours after the acidized
lithium chloride water solution containing boron and the mixed extracting agent are fully mixed; 3,
phase splitting is performed, wherein a mixed
liquid phase of the
lithium chloride water solution containing boron and the mixed extracting agent is divided into an
oil phase and a first water phase after standing; 4,
recovery is performed, wherein the first water phase is guided out, the boron content is detected, the first water phase is re-guided back to the step 2 under the situation that the boron content exceeds the standard and serves as
lithium chloride water containing boron to perform extraction, the operation is repeated till the boron content of the water phase is up to the standard. The lithium-containing brine can be extracted in a low-cost and efficient mode, treated waste water can be secondarily utilized, and environmental
pollution can be reduced.
