Clean lithium extraction possible with new zero-water, zero-chemical method
ElectraLith's DLE-R technology redefines lithium production, ensuring a clean supply chain for electric vehicles and beyond.
At present, lithium batteries are the most efficient, clean, and practical solution for powering electric vehicles and electronic gadgets, as well as for storing wind and solar energy. For instance, the extraction of just one ton of lithium requires two million liters of water and releases thousands of pounds of CO 2 into the atmosphere. “Our cutting-edge DLE-R technology revolutionizes Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) and Refining processes by extracting and producing battery-grade lithium hydroxide in a single, scalable, and modular step that requires no water or chemicals, running entirely on renewable energy,” the ElectraLith team notes.
