Summary
The Institute of General and Inorganic Chemistry of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, represented by junior researcher Daria Pechenka (headed by Andrei Ivanets, Doctor of Chemistry, Corresponding Member of the NAS of Belarus), is developing a technology for extracting lithium ions from aqueous media and is looking for partners to conclude an agreement on research or technical cooperation.
Description
Now, lithium is widely used in various fields of industry. At the same time, lithium reserves on Earth are limited. These problems cause the relevance of the development of new materials and technologies for the extraction of lithium ions. The Institute of General and Inorganical Chemistry develops a technology for the production of sorbents based on lithium-manganese oxides for the extraction of lithium ions from aqueous solution, as well as the processing of lithium-ion batteries. These oxides are selective adsorbents of lithium ions. At present, adsorption is one of the most promising industrial methods.
