4/ C is made into the iron lithium phosphate composite membrane, and the iron lithium phosphate composite membrane is placed the lithium salts chamber of electrodialysis unit, adds the NaCl solution 1L of 50g/L; The tertiary iron phosphate ion(ic)sieve of gained is placed the bittern chamber, add the 1L salt lake brine, composition and the content of bittern are as shown in the table:
Take the iron lithium phosphate composite membrane as anode, the tertiary iron phosphate ion(ic)sieve is negative electrode, after pH is the voltage that applies 1.0V under 10,30 ℃, keeps 12h, and Li in the bittern chamber
+Concentration be reduced to 442.3mg/L, Li in the lithium salts chamber
+Concentration be 57.8mg/L.After electrodialysis finishes, after electrodialysis finishes, embedding lithium attitude ion(ic)sieve and the not mutually conversion of form generation of embedding lithium ion sieve; Position transposing with above-mentioned two electrodes, the tertiary iron phosphate ion(ic)sieve that is about to the iron lithium phosphate composite membrane conversion gained in the lithium salts chamber places the bittern chamber as negative electrode, the embedding lithium attitude ion(ic)sieve that tertiary iron phosphate ion(ic)sieve in the bittern chamber is transformed gained places the lithium salts chamber as anode, carries out under the same conditions electrodialysis; After electrodialysis finishes, Li in the bittern chamber
+Concentration become 384.6mg/L, Li in the lithium salts chamber
+Concentration be increased to 115.7mg/L.
Carry out in this way the several circulation, after the 6th electrodialysis finishes, Li in the bittern chamber
+Concentration become 153.5mg/L, Li in the lithium salts chamber
+Concentration be increased to 346.8mg/L.
