As Li-ion batteries are increasingly being deployed in electric vehicles and grid-level energy storage, the demand for Li is growing rapidly. Extracting lithium from alternative aqueous sources such as geothermal brines plays an important role meeting this demand. Electrochemical intercalation emerges a promising extraction technology due to its ability offer high selectivity avoidance of harsh chemical regenerants. In work, we design economically feasible electrochemical process that achieves selective Salton Sea brine purification chloride using materials, conversion battery grade (>99.5% purity) hydroxide by bipolar membrane electrodialysis. We conduct techno-economic assessments parametric model estimated levelized cost LiOH•H2O 4.6 USD/kg at electrode lifespan 0.5 years. The results demonstrate potential our electro-driven, chemical-free sources. becomes crucial increasing Here, authors finally produce hydroxide.

As the gap between lithium supply and demand continues to widen, need develop ion-selective technologies, which can efficiently extract from unconventional water sources, grows increasingly crucial. In this study, we investigated fundamentals of applying a solid-state electrolyte (SSE), typically used in battery as membrane material for aqueous extraction. We find that anhydrous hopping ions through ordered confined SSE lattice is highly distinct ion migration hydrated free volumes conventional nanoporous membranes, thus culminating unique transport properties. Notably, reveal provides unparalleled performance with respect ion-ion selectivity, consistently demonstrating selectivity values are immeasurable by even part-per-billion detection limit mass spectrometry. Such exceptional shown be result characteristic size charge exclusion mechanisms transport, may leveraged design next-generation membranes resource recovery.

Lithium (Li) is considered a critical material because of growing Li-ion battery demand and 90% global production occurring in Australia, Chile, China. (Li + ) extraction from brine uses large areas for evaporation precipitation. Membrane separation can extract lithium with minimal water losses. However, the effect composition on Li transport across different commercial membranes electrodialysis (ED) separations remains pressing knowledge gap. This study aimed to evaluate co-occurring ion effects (Na , Mg 2+ Ca ED using membranes. performance was evaluated varying current densities binary solutions single-stack cell comprised standard anion exchange membrane either cation (CEM), monovalent-selective CEM, or nanofiltration (NF) membrane. selectivities were highest followed by NF then CEM. Monovalent contaminants remain an extant challenge all tested. Selectivity factors over divalent cations reached 6.8 (S Li/Mg 56.7 Li/Ca at 2.8 mA cm −2 These achieved without precipitation/fouling; /Mg /Ca ratios increased 0.5 feed (for both ions) 5.0 3.5 permeate.

The global challenge of climate change and the pursuit carbon neutrality drive demand for clean energy technologies, increasing need critical minerals. However, diminishing ore quality supply chain vulnerabilities highlight necessity exploring unconventional mineral sources. This paper assesses potential sources such as low-grade ores, brines, secondary byproducts extracting minerals, focusing on lithium, nickel, cobalt, rare earth elements. Conventional refining techniques struggle with complexity low concentrations found in sources, prompting exploration innovative methods. Electrically driven membrane particularly electrodialysis (ED), show promise selectively transporting metals through ion exchange membranes. combination functionalized membranes advanced ED technologies offers high selectivity specific elements, renewable energy-based operations can minimize environmental impact. Recent advancements ED, including selective liquid demonstrate efficient recovery comprehensive review explores principles recent progress a focus recovering minerals from is structured into three main sections: categorizing properties based latest literature, fundamental underpinning modern investigating breakthroughs separation using technologies. framework highlights efficiently processing diverse adeptly retrieving
