The invention discloses an extraction agent containing a
Keggin structure heteropolyacid or heteropolyacid salt co-extraction agent and a
lithium extraction method. The extraction agent comprises the following steps: S1, taking untreated oilfield brine as an extraction water phase; s2, dissolving a
Keggin structure heteropolyacid or heteropolyacid salt co-extraction agent into an
organic phosphorus extraction agent, and taking the co-extraction agent as an extraction organic phase after the co-extraction agent is completely dissolved; s3, mixing and extracting the extracted water phase and the extracted organic phase, and after the extraction is balanced, standing and splitting phases to obtain an organic phase and a water phase; step S4, using a LiCl and MgCl2
mixed solution as a washing agent, and washing the organic phase separated in the step S3; s5, dilute
hydrochloric acid is used as a stripping agent, and the organic phase obtained through separation in the step S4 is subjected to stripping; and step S6, concentrating the strip liquor separated in the step S5, and then adding a precipitator to prepare Li2CO3. According to the method, the
lithium extraction efficiency can be improved, and the
lithium can be selectively extracted from the high-
sodium and high-
calcium oilfield brine.
