초록

에너지 저장 장치의 필수 요소인 리튬에 대한 필요성이 증가함에 따라 전 세계 리튬 침전물의 주요 공급원인 염수로부터 효율적인 리튬 회수 방법의 개발이 요구됩니다. 염수로부터 리튬을 회수하는 과정은 유사한 특성을 가진 공존하는 이온의 존재로 인해 복잡합니다. 크라운 에테르 기능화된 막은 선택적 리튬 회수를 위한 유망한 솔루션을 제시합니다. 이온쌍극자 상호 작용을 통한 금속 이온에 대한 강한 친화력으로 유명한 크라운 에테르는 공동-이온 크기 호환성에 기반한 리튬 이온의 선택적 추출을 촉진하는 "호스트-게스트" 복합체를 형성합니다. 다양한 연구에서 크라운 에테르 이식된 막이 리튬 선택성을 향상시키는 데 효과가 있음이 입증되었습니다. 이 리뷰는 크라운 에테르 기능화된 막의 발전을 탐구하여 염수로부터의 리튬 회수 문제를 해결할 수 있는 잠재력을 보여줍니다.

The increasing need for lithium, an essential element in energy storage devices, calls for the development of efficient lithium recovery methods from brines, the primary source of global lithium deposits. The recovery process of lithium from brines is complex due to the presence of co-existing ions with similar properties. Crown ether functionalized membranes present a promising solution for selective lithium recovery. Crown ethers, known for their strong affinity towards metal ions through ion-dipole interactions, form "host-guest" complexes that facilitate the selective extraction of lithium ions based on cavity-cation size compatibility. Various studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of crown ether-grafted membranes in enhancing lithium selectivity. This review explores the advancements in crown ether functionalized membranes, showing their potential to address the challenges in lithium recovery from brines.
