Title:
PRODUCTION METHOD FOR LITHIUM-CONTAINING SOLUTION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/116607
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a method for producing a lithium-containing solution such that efficiency of an elution step is maintained and the overall lithium manganate is not dissolved. This lithium-containing solution production method executes, in order: an adsorption step in which a low lithium-containing fluid is caused to come in contact with a lithium adsorbent and converted to a post-adsorption lithium manganate, said lithium adsorbent being obtained from lithium manganate; an elution step in which the post-adsorption lithium manganate is caused to come in contact with an acid solution and a solution containing lithium having residual manganese is obtained; and a manganese oxidation step in which the manganese is oxidized and a lithium-containing solution having suppressed manganese concentration is obtained. The acid solution is a hydrochloric acid solution of 0.5–4.0 mol/L. As a result of this production method, the efficiency of exchange reactions between Li+ and H+ positive ions during the elution step is maintained and dissolution of the whole lithium manganate is suppressed. This enables a lithium adsorbent to be repeatedly used.
