Definitions
- the inventions relate to a process for the production of lithium chloride from brine and a plant for carrying out the process. They generally relate to the field of wet lithium metallurgy, in particular the extraction of lithium chloride from its solutions and from natural brine.
- a method for obtaining lithium chloride from solutions (US Pat. No. 4,291,001), for example from brine based on crystalline lithium aluminate LiCl 2AI (OH) 3 nH 2 O, synthesized in the macropores of an ion exchange resin, and for using this sorbent in the sorption columns with the resting filter layer of the sorbent on the way of lithium elution (desorption) and subsequent concentration of the eluate via a column system.
- the salt of a non-competitive metal e.g. NaCI or CaCI 2
- the column system is operated with brine heating up to a temperature of 60 ° C or more.
- the use of salt for the eluate concentration leads to additional reagent consumption and to eluate contamination by sodium chloride and calcium chloride.
- US Pat. No. 4,291,001 describes a plant for the production of lithium chloride from brine, consisting of a device for the production of lithium chloride and a device for concentrating the eluate - lithium chloride solution, which includes three columns filled with sorbent, which together, with the brine source and the container for fresh water by means of a piping system.
- the system has a salt metering device and a device for the removal of the concentrated lithium chloride.
- the known system takes up an important production area and has a high metal requirement and a complicated control system for process control.
- a process for the production of lithium chloride from brine is known as a sorption-desorption complex (hereinafter referred to as SDK), which the sorption extraction of the lithium from the brine by contacting with the granular sorbent selective for lithium according to RU 2050330, produced according to the process according to RU 2113405 and RU 2050184, as well as the lithium desorption by means of the demineralized water with the extraction of the lithium chloride solution as an eluate and its subsequent concentration.
- the chloride form of the double hydroxide of aluminum and lithium in the composition LiCl 2AI (OH) 3 nH 2 O is used as the sorbent.
- the lithium sorption and desorption is carried out in step countercurrent operation.
- the duration of the residence time of the sorbent in the sorption zone is chosen as it is required for complete sorbent saturation with the lithium chloride.
- the duration of the residence time in the desorption zone is determined by the time required for a complete extraction of lithium chloride from the sorbent.
- the sorption duration is specified on the basis of the condition of the equivalent saturation of the sorbent initial charge volume with the lithium, which is equal to the volume of the new sorbent charge.
- the sorbent post-saturation with the lithium up to the limit value is carried out while ensuring the maximum possible concentration of lithium chloride in the sorbent during sorption and corresponding to the maximum possible concentration in the solution in the course of the phase contacts during desorption.
- the concentration of the eluate of the lithium chloride produced in the known method is carried out by electrodialysis in the presence of an ion exchange resin, which not only causes a concentration of the solution of the lithium chloride, but also allows its post-cleaning of calcium and magnesium admixtures.
- the sorbent used for the selective sorption of lithium from the brine with high mineralization is based on the chloride form of the double hydroxide of aluminum and lithium LiCI 2AI (OH) 3 nH 2 O (hereinafter called DHAL-CI) with construction defects and lithium deficiency in its composition prepared, which corresponds to the sorption capacity of 6 i 1 mg lithium per 1 gram of sorbent.
- DHAL-CI lithium LiCI 2AI (OH) 3 nH 2 O
- WO 94/19280 describes a process with a plant for the sorption of lithium in the form of its chloride.
- a component of the plant is the sorption-desorption complex (hereinafter referred to as SDK), which is a Higgens column type with a U-shaped cylinder body filled with granulated sorbent.
- the SDK has ball valves that are mounted in the sorption and desorption areas of the column and are used in the column body for the passage of sorbent.
- the intersections of the sorption and desorption zones are 1.5: 1.0.
- In the SDK are arranged: pipes for the supply of the starting brine into the sorption zone and for the discharge of the brine from it, pipes for the supply of the elution liquid into the desorption zone and for the eluate discharge from it, pipes for the discharge of the regenerated sorbent from the desorption zone and For the supply of the regenerated sorbent into the sorption area from the SDK and a pipeline for the supply of the solution for the re-saturation and the washing of the sorbent, which is mounted under the pipeline for the supply of the starting brine in the sorption zone.
- the SDK is connected by means of the pipes and the fitting: to the containers for the starting brine and the brine, for the elution liquid and for the eluate, with the collection container for the solution, which is used as rinsing liquid in the sorbent classification and with the filter for the Sorbent separation method and with the device for concentrating the eluate, which consists of an electrodialyzer and a pulp preparation apparatus, the eluate container, the container for demineralized water and the filter, and the containers for the concentrated solution of lithium chloride and for the Regenerate (solution of magnesium chloride and calcium chloride after resin regeneration in the electrodialyzer are connected.
- the main disadvantages of this system are as follows: only eluates with a low lithium chloride concentration ( ⁇ 5 kg / m 3 ) can be obtained, in the insufficient purity of the eluate to be fed into the electrochemical apparatus, in the absence of a channel for the return of the liquid the zone for the sorbent transfer into the desorption zone, in a significant sorbent wear due to the slanted device in the column and the different diameter of the device in the so ⁇ tions- and the desorption zone; a long drain time of the brine and the rinsing liquid; an uneven supply of brine in the column cross-section, the use of an electrodialyzer with low power for the eluate concentration.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide an improved process for the extraction of
- Lithium chloride with higher purity and yield enables.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a plant for carrying out this method.
