The occurrence forms of lithium resources in the nature are mainly lithium-containing ores and brine resources, china is a large country of lithium resources, meanwhile, the import of lithium resources is also a large country of lithium resources, the import of lithium raw materials is more than 50%, the international lithium market is highly monopoly, the market price of lithium products is increased in the year 2020, and therefore, the green development and the efficient recovery of the lithium resources are important subjects related to the energy safety of China.
The main raw materials for producing lithium carbonate are lithium ore and salt lake brine, and at present, the processes of acid leaching, alkaline leaching, salt phase inversion and the like are mainly used for producing lithium carbonate from lithium ore. Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a process flow for producing lithium carbonate from beta-diaspore ore using an acid leaching method in the prior art. At present, the lithium carbonate is mainly produced by a salt lake brine by an adsorption method, a calcination method, a membrane electrolysis method, an extraction method and the like. Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a process flow of producing lithium carbonate from salt lake brine using an adsorption method in the prior art.
As can be seen from fig. 1 and 2, although the front stages of the process flow of producing lithium carbonate from lithium ore and lithium carbonate from salt lake brine are different, the process flow comprises processes of removing impurities, concentrating and precipitating sodium carbonate at the rear end of the production. In the sodium carbonate precipitation process, a nearly saturated sodium carbonate solution is often added into a high-concentration lithium-containing solution, and because the solubility of lithium carbonate is relatively low, the lithium carbonate is separated out from the solution, and a crude lithium carbonate product with higher purity is obtained after high-temperature washing and dehydration.
In the process of lithium carbonate precipitation, lithium ions cannot be completely precipitated due to Ksp limitation of lithium carbonate, the concentration of lithium ions in the lithium precipitation mother solution is about 1.5 g/L-2.2 g/L, and in part of the process, the lithium content in the lithium precipitation mother solution even accounts for 20% of the total yield, so that the utilization rate of lithium resources is greatly reduced, and the efficiency and the economy of the lithium carbonate production process are severely restricted.
In order to improve the utilization rate of lithium resources, lithium needs to be recovered from lithium precipitation mother liquor, and the existing method for extracting lithium from lithium-containing solution comprises a solvent extraction method, wherein the solvent extraction method is to utilize the special extraction performance of extraction organic phase relative to lithium to achieve the purpose of extracting lithium, and the key point is to find a proper extraction organic phase. The processes of extracting lithium from lithium-containing solutions by solvent extraction are all proposed in chinese patent application (application number: CN 201711298057.4), chinese patent application (application number: CN 201711295127.0) and chinese patent application (application number: CN 201711298395.8), but the extraction organic phases mentioned therein all require kerosene to be added as a diluent, which has the following problems: (1) The lower effective concentration of the extractant in the extracted organic phase results in low lithium loading of the extractant after extraction, which is about 0.5g/L to 2g/L; (2) The solubility of a complex formed by extracting metal ions from an organic phase in a diluent is relatively low, three phases are easy to appear in operation, and continuous production is not facilitated.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention will be given with reference to the accompanying drawings. Examples of these preferred embodiments are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments of the invention shown in the drawings and described in accordance with the drawings are merely exemplary and the invention is not limited to these embodiments.
It should be noted here that, in order to avoid obscuring the present invention due to unnecessary details, only structures and/or processing steps closely related to the solution according to the present invention are shown in the drawings, while other details not greatly related to the present invention are omitted.
According to the defect that the diluent is contained in an extraction organic phase used in the extraction of lithium by using a solvent extraction method in the prior art, the inventor provides a method for extracting lithium by using a deep eutectic solvent, and the method has the advantages of high lithium loading capacity, high lithium extraction efficiency, low production cost and simple process.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a process flow diagram of a method for extracting lithium using a deep eutectic solvent according to an embodiment of the present invention.
A method of extracting lithium using a deep eutectic solvent, comprising the steps of:
step S1, preparing deep eutectic solvent
Specifically, the molar ratio of the hydrogen bond donor to the hydrogen bond acceptor is 1: 2. 1:1 or 2:1, stirring at 40-60 ℃ to form a uniform phase, and cooling to room temperature to obtain a deep eutectic solvent; wherein the hydrogen bond donor is a beta-diketone compound with electron withdrawing substituent, and the hydrogen bond acceptor is a compound which contains P=O and/or N=O, has electron donating property and can form hydrogen bond groups;
more specifically, the hydrogen bond donor is selected from at least one of benzoyl trifluoroacetone, thenoyl trifluoroacetone, dibenzoylmethane, naphthoyl trifluoroacetone, and phenylmethylformyl pyrazolone.
More specifically, the hydrogen bond acceptor is at least one selected from triphenylphosphine oxide, trioctylphosphine oxide, tributyl phosphate, trioctyl phosphate, 2- (diethylhexyl) acetamide and 2- (dimethylheptyl) acetamide.
It is worth mentioning that the hydrogen bond donor and hydrogen bond acceptor provided by the invention are both solid compounds, but the extraction is performed in liquid. Therefore, in the process of preparing the deep eutectic solvent, the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor are mixed according to the molar ratio of 1:2, 1:1 or 2:1, and only in the proportion, the melting point of the mixture formed by the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor is greatly reduced compared with other independent components, so that the mixture has high selectivity to lithium; in other proportions, when cooled down to room temperature, the originally solid components precipitate from the mixture and cannot be used for further extraction because hydrogen bonds cannot be quantitatively formed.
The strength of the hydrogen bond formed between the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor is affected by temperature, and the temperature of the mixing reaction of the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor is 40-60 ℃, for example, 40 ℃, 45 ℃, 50 ℃, 55 ℃ or 60 ℃.
More specifically, the temperature at which the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor are mixed and reacted is preferably 60 ℃.
More specifically, the mixing reaction of the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor is preferably performed under the condition of heating in a water bath.
In addition, the mixing and stirring time of the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor is not particularly limited, and it is only necessary to ensure that all of the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor are changed from solid to liquid, specifically, the mixing and stirring time of the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor is preferably 30min to 120min, and may be, for example, 30min, 40min, 50min, 60min, 70min, 80min, 90min, 100min, 110min or 120min.
Note that, when the hydrogen bond donor and the hydrogen bond acceptor are mixed and stirred to form a uniform phase, no solid is precipitated when the mixture is cooled to room temperature, a deep eutectic solvent is obtained.

li in lithium-containing solution + Can improve Li within a certain concentration range + Is returned to (a)Yield when Li in lithium-containing solution + When the content is too low, the recovery cost is high, and the recovery benefit is poor. The Li is + The mass concentration of (C) may be, for example, 1.20g/L, 1.40g/L, 1.60g/L, 1.80g/L, 2.0g/L, 2.20g/L, 2.40g/L or 2.50g/L.
In addition, the anions in the lithium-containing solution can be anions existing in the lithium-containing solution per se or anions introduced in the comprehensive utilization process of the lithium-containing solution;
specifically, the lithium-containing solution is a lithium-precipitating mother solution separated after lithium carbonate is prepared by adopting a precipitation method, wherein Li in the lithium-precipitating mother solution + The mass concentration of (2) is 1.5 g/L-2.2 g/L, na + The mass concentration of (C) is 35 g/L-60 g/L, ca 2+ And Mg (magnesium) 2+ Not higher than 0.1g/L.
It should be noted that, if the initial pH of the lithium-containing brine cannot meet the above requirement, the lithium-containing alkaline brine with the pH of 9-12 can be obtained by adding sodium hydroxide solution, sodium carbonate solution or ammonia solution thereto; the amount and concentration of the substance used for adjusting the pH of the sodium hydroxide solution, sodium carbonate solution or ammonia solution are not particularly limited.

In the process of extracting lithium by using the deep eutectic solvent, the diluent is not used, so that the volume of an extracted organic phase is reduced, the equipment volume is reduced, and the production cost is low. In addition, the deep eutectic solvent after extraction has large lithium loading capacity and small water solubility, and the rest components in the extraction residual liquid are basically unchanged.
Step S3, back extraction

In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, room temperature conditions are preferred for cost savings.
During the extraction, the extracted organic phase and the extracted aqueous phase need to be oscillated to accelerate the extraction rate, preferably at an oscillation rate of 50rpm to 300rpm, which may be, for example, 50rpm, 100rpm, 150rpm, 200rpm, 250rpm or 300rpm.
Generally, the back extraction equilibrium is achieved by controlling the back extraction time to be 2-60 min, for example, the extraction time may be 2min, 5min, 10min, 15min, 20min, 25min, 30min, 35min, 40min, 50min or 60min.
After the back extraction is balanced, the phase of the mixed system needs to be separated, wherein the phase separation mode can be carried out by natural sedimentation, namely a standing mode, or can be carried out by centrifugation, and in the preferred embodiment of the invention, the separation of the lithium-rich solution and the empty-load deep eutectic solvent is preferably realized by standing phase separation.
After the back extraction is completed, the lithium-rich solution is analyzed and tested to obtain Li in the lithium-rich solution + Is a mass concentration of (a).
