What is the role of lithium extractant

The main function of the lithium extractant is to efficiently extract lithium ions from lithium-containing aqueous solutions.

Lithium extraction agent is a chemical reagent, which can capture lithium ions from an aqueous solution containing a variety of salts and anions, and extract them to an aqueous solution without other metal ions or an acid or alkali solution to obtain a high concentration of lithium ion aqueous solution. This technology can be customized according to different characteristics of lithium-containing aqueous solution for the characteristics of different functional groups of the extraction agent, in order to achieve the purpose of efficient lithium extraction. Lithium extractant has high selectivity and can effectively extract lithium in alkaline solution (alkaline earth elements such as magnesium and calcium have been removed), which is of great significance for the separation and concentration of lithium ions from complex solutions. In addition, the application of lithium extractant is not limited to the extraction of lithium from natural water sources, but also includes the recovery process of lithium batteries, which is used to efficiently separate manganese and magnesium ions from a variety of metal ions, improving the recovery efficiency and purity.

In summary, the lithium extractant, through its high selectivity and pertinence, makes it possible to extract lithium ions from complex solutions, which plays an important role in both resource recovery and new material preparation.
