Abstract
Description
第2発明のリチウム含有溶液の製造方法は、第1発明において、前記溶離工程が、0℃以上70℃以下で行われていることを特徴とする。
第2発明によれば、溶離工程が0℃以上70℃以下で行われていることにより、マンガン酸リチウム全体の溶解が抑制されるとともに、陽イオン同士の交換反応の効率が確実に維持できる。
(吸着工程の前段階)
吸着工程では、リチウム吸着剤に低リチウム含有液を接触させて、吸着後マンガン酸リチウムが得られるが、この吸着工程で使用するリチウム吸着剤を得る方法について説明する。なお、図1には、本発明の一実施形態に係るリチウム含有溶液の製造方法のフロー図が示されているが、「吸着工程の前段階」の説明は、図1の最上段に位置するH1.6Mn1.6O4が得られる段階である。
Li1.6Mn1.6O4+1.6HCl→H1.6Mn1.6O4+1.6LiCl
図1には、本発明の一実施形態に係るリチウム含有溶液の製造方法のフロー図を示す。吸着工程では、リチウム吸着剤に低リチウム含有液を接触させて、数2に示すHとLiとのイオン交換反応により吸着後マンガン酸リチウムを得る。本明細書では、吸着工程で得られたマンガン酸リチウムを、吸着後マンガン酸リチウムと称することがある。
H1.6Mn1.6O4+1.6LiCl→Li1.6Mn1.6O4+1.6HCl
溶離工程では、吸着後マンガン酸リチウムに酸溶液を接触させて、数3に示す反応によりマンガン残リチウム含有溶液を得る。この際、吸着後マンガン酸リチウムは、Li+とH+という陽イオン同士の交換反応により、リチウム吸着剤として再生され、このリチウム吸着剤は、再度吸着工程で用いられる。
Li1.6Mn1.6O4+1.6HCl→H1.6Mn1.6O4+1.6LiCl
マンガン酸化工程では、溶離工程で得られたマンガン残リチウム含有溶液に、酸化剤およびpH調整剤を追加することで2価のマンガンを、4価のマンガンに酸化させ、マンガン濃度を抑制したリチウム含有溶液を得る。4価のマンガンは難溶性であるため、溶液内で沈殿する。これによりマンガン残リチウム含有溶液に含まれるマンガンの濃度を抑制することができる。さらに、沈殿したマンガンは、リチウム吸着剤の原料として再利用することが可能である。
マンガン酸化工程で得られたリチウム含有溶液には、本実施形態の場合塩化リチウム(LiCl)という状態でリチウムが存在するので、この溶液にアルカリを投入したり、過熱濃縮したりして、例えば炭酸リチウムという状態でリチウムが得られる。
(吸着工程)
低リチウム含有液である塩湖かん水を模してリチウムを溶解させた溶液に、リチウム吸着剤であるH1.6Mn1.6O4を5g投入し、吸着後マンガン酸リチウムであるLi1.6Mn1.6O4を5.3g得た。この吸着後マンガン酸リチウムは、固液分離され、乾燥されることで、粉末状とした。
上記の吸着後マンガン酸リチウムLi1.6Mn1.6O4の粉末3gと、酸溶液として、1mol/Lの塩酸水溶液42mLとを、100mLのパイレックス(登録商標)ビーカー内で30分間撹拌混合した。この際、塩酸水溶液の温度は25℃に保持されていた。撹拌混合後12時間静置し、静置後の溶液(マンガン残リチウム含有溶液)を固液分離して、溶液中のマンガン濃度がICP-AESで測定された。その結果を表1および図2に示す。なお、実施例等については、マンガンの溶解量を求めるため、マンガン酸化工程を行う前のマンガン残リチウム含有溶液についての結果を示しており、通常、マンガン残リチウム含有溶液から、マンガン酸化工程を経てリチウム含有溶液が得られる。
実施例2は、溶離工程での酸溶液として、2mol/Lの塩酸水溶液が用いられたこと以外は、実施例1と同じ条件である。その結果を表1および図2に示す。
実施例3は、溶離工程での酸溶液として、4mol/Lの塩酸水溶液が用いられたこと以外は、実施例1と同じ条件である。その結果を表1および図2に示す。
