冠醚/离子液体体系对锂离子萃取动力学的研究（英文）

本文通过恒界面池法研究了以4’—乙酰基苯并—15—冠—5作为萃取剂和1—丁基—3—甲基咪唑双[(三氟甲基)磺酰基]酰亚胺作为协萃剂的萃取体系从高浓度水溶液中提取锂的动力学。研究了搅拌速度、平衡时间、温度、界面面积和传质阻力区对锂离子传质速率的影响。结果表明,界面膜的厚度在1 600 rpm～2 000 rpm转速范围内是逐渐变薄的,并且在1 800 rmp～2 000 rmp转速范围内是没有变化的,说明锂离子传质速率1 800 rmp～2 000 rmp转速范围内是不变的;在锂离子的萃取平衡时间为40 min;萃取过程的传质阻力主要来自有机相;该萃取过程是混合控制的动力学过程;在两相界面上发生的萃取反应。通过研究锂离子、冠醚离子液体的浓度,锂离子的动力学方程可表达为:ν_(Li,0)=10~(-3.843±0.001)·[Li~+]~( 0.907 1)·[[BMIm]~+]~(0.832 8)·[AcB15C5]~(0.855 5)。通过两相界面处形成锂离子最终配合物的传质速率步骤推导出锂的提取机理,这与实验结果一致。     

球形MnO2·0.5H2O提锂性能及其机理研究

考察了形貌对尖晶石型锂离子筛吸附剂MnO₂·0.5H₂O吸附性能的影响。实验证明,反应物Mn₂O₃的形貌在很大程度上决定了前驱体及其吸附剂的形貌。采用XRD、SEM、TEM、FT-IR、XPS和N₂吸附—解吸等温线等对样品进行了表征。表征和吸附实验结果表明,与立方形锂离子筛相比,球形锂离子筛具有较高的吸附容量(42.46 mg/g),同时对溶液中的Li⁺具有较高的选择性。表面脱质子和离子交换过程的共同作用增强了离子筛型吸附剂的提锂Li⁺性能。此外,本文对Li1.6Mn1.6O₄与MnO₂·0.5H₂O的吸附—解吸机理进行了解释。     

Li+的水合结构和近似饱和水合层:基于密度泛函理论的研究

结合密度泛函理论,运用B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ方法对[Li(H₂O)_n]⁺(n=1~10)水合团簇的结构进行了研究。研究结果表明,在气相和液相中,四配位结构的[Li(H₂O)_n]⁺水合团簇比其五配位的异构体稳定,即在水溶液中Li⁺易形成四配位的四面体结构。随着同时水分子数的增加,Li-O键长增大,Li⁺上的电荷密度减小。但是当水分子数大于4时,Li-O键长和Li⁺上的电荷密度变化很小。[Li(H₂O)_n]⁺水合团簇中每个水分子的结合能计算结果表明,7个水分子已足以形成Li⁺的近似饱和水合层。另外红外光谱显示[Li(H₂O)_n]⁺水合团簇中O-H伸缩振动随着水分子数的增加发生蓝移,而~3 600 cm-1和~3 500 cm-1处的吸收峰是第二水合层与第一水合层、第三水合层和第二水合层的水分子形成氢键引起的。     

Li+,Na+,K+/Cl-,SO2-4-H2O五元体系25 ℃相图及其应用

Li⁺,Na⁺,K⁺/Cl-,SO2-₄-H₂O五元体系相图对于硫酸钠亚型富锂卤水分离提取锂盐、锂辉石加工利用和锂盐产品的开发利用工艺制定都有指导作用。20世纪50年代曾有人研究过这一体系25 ℃时的相图,限于当时的科研水平,液相组成确定不准确,对平衡固相的判断,后来诸多研究结果证明也有错误。50多年来再没有人研究这一五元体系相图。利用我们提出的Li⁺,Na⁺,K⁺/Cl^-,SO^2-₄-H₂O六元体系热力学模型,对该五元体系的平衡溶液组成和正确的平衡固相进行理论预测,给出了该体系的完整相图。结合硫酸锂混盐分离、加工实例阐述了该五元体系相图的应用。     

T-BAMBP/磺化煤油萃取体系从盐湖卤水中萃取铷的动力学研究

采用上升单液滴法研究从盐湖卤水中萃取铷的动力学,主要考察了比界面积、水相铷浓度和油相(t-BAMBP/磺化煤油)浓度对萃取速率的影响,通过比界面积的研究发现t-BAMBP萃取铷的过程由界面化学反应和相内化学反应共同控制;通过对实验数据的非线性拟合得到了萃取体系的动力学方程,R=9.936×10_-7[Rb+]_1.134[t-BAMBP]_2.190,萃取速率对铷的反应级数为a=1.134,对t-BAMBP反应级数b=2.190,实验值和计算值的均方根误差为1.735 %。     

新型复合生物质锂吸附剂的制备及吸附性能研究

以KMnO₄、苯胺、LiOH和生物质碳气凝胶(BCA)为原料,通过水热沉积法得到了锰酸锂(LMO)负载的生物质碳气凝胶(BCA@LMO),并用HCl酸洗后得到了BCA@HMO复合锂吸附剂。利用IR、XRD、XPS、SEM、EDS、Mapping、BET等手段对其结构进行了表征。考察了pH值、离子强度、初始浓度、温度和吸附时间对锂吸附的影响。结果表明,复合吸附剂为介孔结构,其孔道内和表面具有丰富的锰酸锂颗粒,Li⁺的最大平衡吸附量在pH=12时为4.07 mmol·g-1,吸附过程符合Langmuir等温线和准二阶动力学模型,升高温度和碱性环境利于Li⁺的吸附。吸附机理为H⁺与Li⁺的离子交换。复合吸附剂较好地改善了锰系锂吸附剂固液分离困难的问题,该吸附剂在实际南翼山盐田和东台吉乃尔盐田卤水(2.92 mmol·g-1)中具有良好的吸附性能。因此,该吸附剂在卤水锂的分离中具有良好的应用价值和潜力。     

纳滤法用于铝锂分离的初步研究

本文探讨了纳滤分离Al³⁺和Li⁺的可行性,研究了含盐量和铝锂比对分离效率的影响,提出了从锂云母浸出液中分离回收锂的新方法。实验结果表明,纳滤膜对Al³⁺和Li⁺的截留率随含盐量的升高而降低,其中Li⁺始终呈现负浓度梯度扩散的趋势,而Al³⁺的截留率始终稳定在99%以上。当含盐量为45 g/L时,铝锂分离因子最高可达248.33,膜面相应Zeta电位的绝对值达到最大。随着溶液中铝锂比的变化,Al³⁺和Li⁺的截留率分别在不同铝锂比的条件下出现拐点,溶液的pH呈现先下降后上升最后下降的复杂趋势。本实验研究发现,DK膜能够在酸性环境下实现高效的铝锂分离和锂的浓缩,从而为锂云母浸出液中锂的提取提供新的思路。     

基于盐湖尾卤溶液结构变化的镁锂分离研究

盐湖卤水提锂工艺的难点之一在于卤水中镁锂比过高。采用红外光谱对非平衡动态降温过程中溶液结构变化进行分析,测定不同类型单盐溶液和卤水的结构变化,并基于此规律强化盐湖尾卤的镁锂分离。结果表明,MgSO4 溶液在40 ℃及以上时, 984 cm-1 处的特征峰显示可能出现接触式离子对结构(Mg²⁺-SO₄2-);1 280 cm-1处出现溶剂共享型离子对结构( Mg²⁺-H₂O-SO₄2-);Li₂SO₄溶液中出现溶剂共享型离子对结构的可能性低,镁锂之间会出现结构差异。基于如上溶液结构的变化,通过非平衡动态降温过程,实现盐湖尾卤中的镁锂分离,镁锂质量比值可由最初的40降至20左右,Mg²⁺以MgSO₄·nH₂O型混合结晶产品的形式从卤水中析出,而液相中Li⁺的损失率可低至5.01%以下,以此达到了脱镁及锂富集的效果。     

皂化二-(2-乙基己基)磷酸萃取锂的动力学研究

采用恒界面池法研究了钠皂二-(2-乙基己基)磷酸(P204)萃取锂的动力学,考察了搅拌强度、界面面积、反应温度和反应物浓度等因素对锂萃取速率影响。通过搅拌强度、界面积和温度对萃取速率影响规律判别该萃取过程为扩散和界面化学反应共同控制,萃取过程表观活化能为19.95 kJ·mol-1。基于反应物浓度对萃取速率影响,确定初始萃取速率方程为[RLi, init= (0.0048±0.0007)?nLi+?nNaA],Li+与A-(P204阴离子)在界面处生成LiA的反应为萃取锂过程的决速步骤。
