In chemistry, some problems are so persistent that they are nicknamed “forever.” Perfluoroalkyl and ...

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are primarily thought of as environmental pollutants, and most research on them focuses on removing them from the environment. Rice researcher ...

Princeton boffins have developed an extraction technique that slashes the amount of land and time needed for lithium production using string. The researchers say their system can improve production at ...

Solvent extraction supports the migration of lithium ions from brine into an organic liquid phase that contains a specific ...

A graphene membrane uses sunlight to separate lithium from magnesium-rich brine, achieving 28-fold enrichment without electricity or pumps.

In a study published in Nature Water, an international team of researchers from the UK, France, and China presents an alternative to traditional lithium extraction methods. This sustainable lithium ...

Silicon Valley startup Lilac Solutions has a method to get lithium for batteries that’s cheaper, easier on the environment and less water-intensive than mining: it plans to pull it from the Great Salt ...

Lilac Solutions is pioneering a new type of lithium extraction that could double US production in two years and shake up the industry. BOX ELDER COUNTY, Utah – On a bright afternoon in August, the ...
