Abstract

Results of experimental studies on the purification of a lithium chloride solution from soluble chemical impurities by dynamic sorption are presented. Chelate cationites Axionit 3S and Lewatit MonoPlus TP-260 in the Н+ and \({\text{NH}}_{4}^{ + }\) forms were used as sorbents. The mass content of lithium and impurities in the initial solution, eluates, and desorbate and the factors of lithium decontamination from impurity ions are calculated. The output sorption curves of sorbed ions are given.
