Our Technology
The ILiad Process Flow
Easily integrated into existing process operations
Combining a lithium selective adsorbent media with a continuous counter-current adsorption desorption circuit significantly reduces the cost and simplifies the recovery of lithium.
Efficient. Flexible. Sustainable.
Physical footprint savings (10x smaller compared to hard rock methods and 1,000x smaller compared to conventional salar)1
Fresh water usage savings (up to 9x less fresh water usage than conventional salar and up to 3x less fresh water usage than hard rock methods)1
No chemical reagents.
Only water is
required to strip lithium
(no acid or caustic)
Commercially ready. Proven equipment and design with commercial scale adsorbent production make ILiAD ready for implementation
Demonstrated adsorbent lifespan up to 6-years
Viable with virtually all brine resources
*Based on data from "Lithium Hydroxide Monohydrate Life Cycle Assessment Study" by Minviro LTD
Designed for easy installation and immediate operation
Delivered as a fully assembled modularized system, providing easy installation and reducing total installed costs
Reduced systems complexity minimizes maintenance time and cost while increasing system availability
Scalable, repeatable and designed to deliver on a wide range of production capacities and a “plug and play” approach
Combining conventional industry best practices with new technological advances results in a “first to market” DLE technology with proven performance
