Abstract

Extraction of Li+ ions from salt lake brine into an ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([C2mim][NTf2]) mixed with tri-n-butyl was investigated. The extraction mechanism was been studied using UV–Vis spectroscopy From the temperature dependence data, the thermodynamic functions values (ΔG°, ΔH°, and ΔS°) were calculated. Furthermore, stripping of metals from ionic liquid phase to an aqueous phase by hydrochloric acid was accomplished.
