CMI Project 3.1.5 Lithium recovery from dilute sources

This project aims at extracting lithium (li) from the costless brine, produced water, or lithium mining waste solutions, which will help solve the supply chain issue for lithium by unlocking domestic resources. Li is the only critical metal in the cathode common to all current types, making it the hardest to replace. The project features carbon dioxide (CO₂) capture and mineralization, acid generation, and recyclability on a major portion of chemicals. So, this green process will not only contribute to solving the Li supply chain issue, but also fit in the scope of the Net-Zero World in 2050.
