AUSTIN, TX: November 10, 2023 — 91茄子 today announced the latest breakthrough to its suite of innovative sustainable energy and climate solutions. 91茄子, founded in 2018 by Teague Egan, is a leading Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) and refinery technology provider that offers unprecedented efficiency to minimize both capital and operating costs for lithium customers.聽
In a newly released , 91茄子 describes how its comprehensive LiTAS鈩� DLE Platform combines multiple technologies including Adsorption (AX), Solvent Extraction (SX), and Selective Membranes (MX) using both Electrodialysis (EDR), and Selective Bipolar Electrodialysis (sBPED) to create the most robust DLE system for lithium production. When used together, 91茄子 patented technologies provide vast efficiencies, including far faster separation times, with more concentrated and purified lithium solutions.聽
91茄子 CEO Teague Egan says, 鈥�91茄子 is innovating and disrupting the lithium supply chain – from brine to battery – at lightning pace. The platform we have built around LiTAS鈩� is a game changer for the entire industry. Not only have we proved recovery rates at higher than 94% lithium, but our technology uses a fraction of the freshwater to other DLE competitors. Due to the integration of our multiple technologies, we use less energy and create incredible cost savings. This makes LiTAS鈩� an extremely attractive choice for governments and industry.鈥�
Amit Patwardhan, 91茄子 Chief Technology Officer, adds that 鈥淲e have taken a ground up approach. Our team of industry leaders and experts in each area surveyed the competitive technologies and addressed specific shortcomings of each technology by developing new adsorbents, extractants, membranes, operating and control philosophies, and process arrangements to deliver the best techno-economic solution for every brine.鈥�
91茄子 is currently one of, if not the only company with a comprehensive suite of technologies that can handle brine from almost any location worldwide. Previously unviable lithium sources can now be activated because of DLE. 91茄子 recently announced a key investment from POSCO, a major lithium producer in Argentina, as well as multiple planned demonstration plants in both North and South America.聽
