Electrochemistry at work
Advanced Lithium Extraction (ALE) harnesses the elegance and selectivity of electrochemistry to enable the lowest-cost lithium extraction from any brine.
ALE selectively captures lithium, and leaves everything else behind
- Extraction process driven solely by electricity — no chemicals required
- Contaminants remain in brine; captured lithium releases into a clean recovery stream
- Consistent performance across brine chemistries
- Fraction of the cost and resource intensity of competing methods
Compatibility with low-lithium, high-impurity brines.
Electrochemically driven extraction offers precise control → more lithium concentrated from the dirtiest inputs.
Simplified extraction, minimal downstream processing.
We use less water than competing methods and require no chemicals → substantial reduction in permitting timelines and risk.
Tunable enrichment, no sorbent engineering required.
Electricity actively drives captured lithium into the recovery solution → scaled production without complex brine-to-sorbent customization.
Real brines. Real operations. Real results.
- Lithios is rapidly scaling from lab innovation to units that deliver. We commissioned ALE at our first in-field pilot with an American lithium developer in Arkansas, logging thousands of hours of operating uptime at consistent performance, and scaling towards further production capacity.
