Abstract

The invention discloses a method for concentrating and softening brine by integrating reverse osmosis and nanofiltration and a device thereof. A reverse osmosis membrane and a nanofiltration membraneare mainly integrated into a whole; concentrating the brine through a reverse osmosis membrane; the concentrated solution directly enters a nanofiltration membrane to be softened; the brine is integrally concentrated and softened on line; the reverse osmosis membrane and the nanofiltration membrane are integrated on the same device; according to the device, the nanofiltration membrane is directlydriven by the pressure of the reverse osmosis concentrated solution to achieve the separating, softening and filtering effects, the energy consumption, the occupied area and the investment cost of thewhole engineering system can be reduced, and the device has good engineering economy and generalization performance and is suitable for the field of brine refining, and brine comprises salt lake brine, underground brine and salt-making brine.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and device for brine concentration and softening treatment, belonging to the technical field of membrane separation. Background technique [0002] Benefiting from the development of the new energy industry, lithium as a strategic resource has been increasingly valued and is known as an energy metal in the 21st century. Lithium extraction from salt lake brine is the main source of lithium salt production in the world, and salt lake processing products account for more than 70% of lithium salt products. Usually, magnesium and lithium elements coexist in salt lake brine, and because the physical and chemical properties of magnesium and lithium elements are similar, it has caused great difficulties to extract lithium from salt lake brine. [0003] Nanofiltration membrane has excellent interception of divalent and multivalent ions, and the performance of passing through monovalent ions, so that the separation of monovale...
