The website also shows other information of the lithium brines with article simulation pictures, which is a good way to show the composition of lithium brines and what happened when the extraction begins. For example, it helps to see the water evaporation, the water extraction in pipelines from underground of the lithium extractions. Such a particle simulation can give website users an intuitive feeling, strong visual impacts of water waste and shift people’s normal view to lithium.This is the particle simulation of Lithium brine extracted by pipelines from underground. The middle cylinder shows the lithium-brine liquid flow in pipeline and the last cylinder shows the particle simulation of the liquid flow, which can show the relationship between lithium and water. The blue represents water particles, the white means lithium ion particles and red particles are magnesium ions. The different movements of lithium brines of different countries also show the different viscosity, which means different concentration of the brine that decide the amount of water that will be wasted before you get lithium.
The composition of the brine includes many other ions, the magnesium ions are important to show because they mostly decide the efficiency of the process and the quality of the brine. Through the simulation, I wish we could see what happened when the extraction begins and the water is extracting.
