Abstract:

Deep brine in Sichuan basin is abundant in lithium and potassium resources,which has significant development potential,however,the interactions among the coexisting ions are complex.To obtain the crystallization law of each salt in the coexistence chloride system of lithium,potassium,and calcium,the solid-liquid phase equilibria of Li+,K+,Ca2+//Cl--H2O quaternary system at 298.2 K was investigated by using isothermal dissolution method.The solubilities and densities of the solution were determined,meanwhile the solid phase of the quaternary invariant point was identified by X-ray diffraction.The phase diagram was constructed by using the measured data.The results showed that the system was a complex quaternary system with the double salt LiCl·CaCl2·5H2O formed,and the crystalline form of calcium chloride was influenced by the coexisting lithium chloride,with both CaCl2·6H2O and CaCl2·4H2O forms present simultaneously.The corresponding solid-liquid phase diagram consisted of 3 quaternary invariant points(points E1 and E2 were incommensurate type,E3 belonged to commensurate type),7 univariate curves and 5 crystallization regions,the area of crystallization regions was decreased in the order of KCl,LiCl·H2O,CaCl2·4H2O,LiCl·CaCl2·5H2O,CaCl2·6H2O.
