ElectraLith’s DLE-R Proof of Concept Produces Battery Grade Lithium Using No Water Or Chemicals
Technology tamfitronics ElectraLith’s Next-Generation DLE-R Technology Produces Battery Grade Lithium Hydroxide from Salar Brines, Geothermal Oilfield Brines and Spodumene LeachMelbourne, Victoria, 22nd August 2024, ZEX PR WIRE,Melbourne-based ElectraLith Pty Ltd (“ElectraLith”) today announced that its next-generation DLE-R technology has successfully produced battery grade lithium hydroxide from salar brines, geothermal oilfield brines and spodumene leach using its proprietary DLE-R technology.Image: ElectraLith’s DLE-RThis included production of 99.9% pure lithium hydroxide from a contaminated brine comprising less than 60 parts per million (“ppm”) lithium. The proof of concept was achieved using no water, no chemicals and minimal energy.DLE-R is a proprietary end-to-end electro-membrane technology. Unlike most Direct Lithium Extraction (“DLE”) technologies which generally produce lithium chloride, DLE-R can produce battery grade lithium hydroxide or lithium carbonate as its final product.DLE-R uses no water or chemicals and can run...
