Study on Natural Evaporation Process of Longmucuo Brine

Abstract:

The simulation of natural evaporation process of Longmucuo brine in winter was conducted in laboratory, and the original brine was preliminarily concentrated in field. The crystallization sequence of salts, enrichment rule of boron and lithium were obtained. The crystallization sequence of salts of this brine is similar to that of Da Qaidam brine in winter. The boron is enriched in concentrated brine at the same concentration factor with the brine. The concentration factor of lithium is the same as that of the brine at the early evaporating process before the brine is concentrated to 4 times, and it is much lower than that of the brine because of the crystallization of lithium in the late process.
