NeoLith Energy, a client New Energy venture, maximizes the value of mineral resources through an innovative, sustainable DLE process that outputs battery-grade lithium material. Preserving the environment while guaranteeing best-in-class economical lithium recovery and refinement is key to sustainable and responsible lithium production. NeoLith Energy uses a continuous production process to selectively extract the lithium from the brine and then convert it into a high-purity, battery-grade material. The long lead time associated with evaporation is avoided, ensuring a quality end-product from reduced environmental footprint. This DLE technology opens the door to a long-needed, more sustainable approach to lithium production, guaranteeing direct extraction with reduced environmental impact and increased economic value of the lithium resources.
