Four parameters, eluent concentration, matrix loading, Li and acid concentration in sample solutions, were used to evaluate the column's efficiency and robustness. The thesis results show that Li and acid concentration in the sample solution do not affect the Li isolation, but the elution range of higher matrix loading will shift to the smaller range. The whole eluting procedure with optimized concentration 0.3 M HCl only takes around 4 hours. The ��7 Li values with uncertainties (2σ) of samples prepared using the developed set-up were highly consistent with the reference values and the comparative measurement.engembargoedAccessAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalcarbonate matrixLi ion exchange columnδ7 LiThesis
