Development of a novel tailored ion-imprinted polymer for recovery of lithium and strontium from reverse osmosis concentrated brine by Sara M. Alshuiael (8882051)

“…The results showed that the IIP was efficient to remove Li+ but not Sr2+, and it follows Freundlich adsorption isotherms models. The analysis revealed a significant concentration of minerals in the brine sample It also revealed a low concentration of trace metals, like Ba (0.16 mg/L), Zn (0.845 mg/L), Fe (1.31 mg/L), Cu (1.165 mg/L), Pb (1.505 mg/L), and V (3.88 mg/L), except Li and Sr which shows a higher concentration of 43.32 mg/L and 16.93 mg/L respectively. pH 10 was selected to be the optimum pH for the adsorption isotherm experiments, as it was the highest efficient pH to adsorb Li+ and Sr2+. …”
