In the production of battery-grade and high-purity Li2CO3, it is essential to remove magnesium impurities. The state-of-the-art solvent extraction (SX) process using Versatic Acid 10 and D2EHPA co-extracts 3.3-5.5% lithium, while removing 86-98% magnesium. Here, we demonstrate that synergic SX systems containing a beta-diketone (HPMBP, HTTA or HDBM) and Cyanex 923 are highly selective for magnesium extraction over lithium (separation factor alpha > 1,000). The extracted magnesium and lithium complexes have the stoichiometry of [Mg center dot A(2)center dot(C923)(2)] and [Li center dot A (x)center dot(C923)(2)] (x = 1, 2), respectively (A represents deprotonated beta-diketone). The three beta-diketone synergic SX systems all considerably outperformed the Versatic Acid 10 system for magnesium removal from a synthetic solution containing 24 g L-1 Li and 0.24 g L-1 Mg. In a three-stage batch counter-current extraction, the HPMBP and Cyanex 923 synergic SX system removed 100% magnesium with only 0.6% co-extraction of lithium. This excellent Mg/Li separation is the best result reported so far.
