Özet:
Lithium is a crucial mineral for the 21st century due to its utilization in a wide range of industries. Lithium demand will increase because of car battery developments and the necessity for power storage. Investigating alternative strategies for resource recovery is the only way to fulfill this unexpected rise properly and sustainably in demand. Adsorption has been discovered to have some technological advantages over other methods. It is considerably less expensive, lacks the chemical resistance present in membranes, lacks the significant electrical demand of electrochemical approaches, as well as the restricted selectivity and challenges in integration into commercial processes. Lithium manganese oxides, also known as lithium ion-sieves, are adsorbents for lithium extraction that have remarkably high selectivity, high adsorption capacity, minimal toxicity, good chemical stability and cheap cost. They are one of the most promising inorganic adsorbents. This research emphasized on the recovery of lithium from water resources through the use of lithium manganese oxide, which were synthesized in laboratory. They were transformed into spherical beads by adding chitosan, followed by crosslinking these beads with epichlorohydrin to increase their adsorption yield, stability, and reusability. Characterization techniques such as SEM, XRD and BET were applied on the adsorbents. Results shows that the adsorbents distributed uniformly, the adsorbent powder was mesoporous, and from the adsorption studies it was found that the adsorbent worked much better in alkaline conditions such as pH 12, optimum adsorbent dosage estimated as 4 g/L and the equilibrium time measured as 10 hours. From the desorption study approximately 95% of Li desorbed for the first cycle, after the second cycle the adsorbent efficiency started to decrease.
