Demand for lithium is expected to quadruple by the end of decade. Without new sources production, supply-demand curve invert. Traditional geological reserves will not be able meet anticipated gap, thus unconventional need utilized, setting stage fierce competition perhaps most critical mineral resources required energy transition. Direct Lithium Extraction refers umbrella technologies being developed access from sources. Electrochemical extraction offers significant promise its selectivity and low operating cost when coupled with renewable energy. This review aims describe materials process design considerations electrochemical aqueous a specific emphasis on ζ-V2O5 designed in our research group as an insertion host. We point strategies improving capacity based across length scales. Strategies range site-selective modification hosts controlled tortuosity ion diffusion pathways porous electrode architectures. stands poised linchpin sustainable economy cleaning wastewater, hydrogen generation, recovery ancillary metals.
