Lithium tech developers eye ways to boost water recycling
The mining industry is working to boost freshwater recycling while also developing direct lithium extraction (DLE) technologies as it races to reinvent how the battery metal is produced for the green energy transition, executives said. The surging global demand for lithium has sparked widespread interest in DLE technologies, which use less land and can operate far faster than hard rock mining and brine evaporation ponds - the traditional ways to process the white metal. Some types of DLE technologies, though, require 180 metric tons or more of water to produce a single metric ton of lithium,...
