Minimizing solid waste

Nanofiltration technology providing precision purification

Nanofiltration is a purification technique that uses a membrane to separate the calcium, magnesium and sulphate that are found with lithium in brine. It enables these elements to be completely removed from the brine while the mixture is still in a liquid state.

Let’s talk responsible extraction

Nanofiltration maintains everything in a dissolved state, avoiding solid waste generation. In conventional lithium mining processes, solid waste is generated when impurities are separated through chemical precipitation.
