Embodiment 1
The invention provides a kind of extraction agent, for carrying out the extracting and separating of lithium ion to the aqueous phase (extraction stoste) containing lithium ion, it comprises tributyl phosphate (TBP) and ionic liquid, and the volume ratio of described ionic liquid and described tributyl phosphate is not higher than 1:1.
In embodiments of the invention, preferably typical imidazoles salt is mixed to form extraction agent as ionic liquid and TBP, carries out the parallel control experiment of several groups of lithium ion extractions, to obtain preferably extraction process parameters.Introduce the process adopting this extraction agent to extract salt lake lithium ion below.
Extraction temperature: room temperature (about 20 DEG C)
Extraction stoste: ginseng is shown in Table 1.
Table 1 salt lake brine (extraction stoste) forms

The Mg coexisted in salt lake brine 2+to separation Li +there is direct impact, from salt lake brine, be separated Li +its essence carries out the separation of magnesium lithium exactly.Therefore from salt lake brine, when separating Li, generally adopt solvent extration first to the Li in salt lake brine +extract, then obtain the secondary bittern of low Mg/Li ratio through back extraction, be converted into low Mg/Li ratio secondary bittern by salt lake brine with high magnesium-lithium ratio, then obtain lithium product through the step such as demagging, precipitation.
Above-mentioned be that the sodium perchlorate solid of 1:1 is configured to aqueous phase containing adding with lithium ion mol ratio in lithium bittern.Filter because of the solid sodium chloride that salting-out effect produces in described aqueous phase, the aqueous phase after filtration is for subsequent use.
By tributyl phosphate (TBP) and imidazoles salt 1-butyl-3-Methylimidazole hexafluorophosphate ([C 4mim] [PF 6]) to be mixedly configured into some groups of extraction agents in the ratio of table 2 for subsequent use.Extraction agent and aqueous phase compared with O/A be 1:1, the ratio (n (ClO of the amount of substance of perchlorate and lithium ion 4 -): n (Li +)) be also under the condition of 1:1, at room temperature mixing concussion 10min, leaves standstill 20min, by two-phase laminated flow.To being separated the organic phase that obtains and raffinate, to analyze (see table 2) known, as the volume ratio (V of ionic liquid and TBP iL: V tBP) not higher than all (V more than 50% of the extraction efficiency in 2:3,10min iL: V tBPbe control experiment when=0), especially at V iL: V tBPbe 1 ~ 3:4 ~ 7 scope in extraction efficiency the highest, illustrate that the effect of extracting of this volume ratio is better.
