Our Innovative Solution: A Paradigm Shift in Lithium Extraction
At the core of Lithium Harvest’s revolutionary approach is our patented solution, designed to address the environmental and economic challenges of traditional lithium mining. Our solution utilizes produced water, an abundant byproduct of oil and gas extraction, transforming it into a valuable source of lithium and other critical minerals.
-
Harnessing Produced Water
Our technology reimagines produced water as a valuable resource, significantly reducing the environmental footprint by eliminating the need for invasive land use, excessive freshwater consumption, and environmentally damaging mining practices. This transformation benefits the planet and converts a costly waste stream into a revenue-generating asset for oil and midstream companies.
-
Advanced, Proven Extraction Process
We use Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) combined with advanced filtration to efficiently isolate and extract lithium compounds from produced water. With 20 years of experience and partnerships with industry-leading companies, we have developed a highly reliable, scalable solution that is ready for immediate integration, reducing risk for partners.
-
Faster to Market
Our modular plants can be deployed in 12-15 months, dramatically reducing the time to market compared to traditional mining methods. This agility allows oil and midstream companies to capitalize on the growing lithium demand quickly and efficiently. This speed to market helps capture the soaring demand for lithium from the EV and battery sectors, maximizing returns in a shorter timeframe.
-
Sustainable & Scalable
Sustainability is at the heart of our operations. Our process produces zero waste by-products and consumes up to 96% less water than traditional lithium mining. Recycling over 90% of the water used in our operations contributes to water conservation while minimizing the carbon footprint. Our modular, scalable technology can be seamlessly integrated into various operational sizes and geographical locations, making it adaptable to both oil and midstream partners.
-
Lower Operational Costs
Our solution offers up to 70% lower capital expenditures (CapEx) and 35% lower operational expenditures (OpEx) than traditional lithium extraction, providing significant financial benefits while maintaining an environmentally responsible operation. This results in a leaner, more profitable operation, giving us a significant competitive edge.
Surging Ahead of Competitors: Cost-Efficiency, Sustainability, and Speed to Market
Our innovation surges ahead of competitors.
At Lithium Harvest, our lithium extraction solution outpaces traditional methods and competing solutions by delivering one of the most cost-efficient and sustainable lithium extraction processes available today. Here is how we surge ahead:
- Unmatched Cost-Efficiency: Unlike traditional mining or evaporation ponds, which are capital and resource-intensive, our solution offers a low-cost solution by transforming oilfield wastewater into valuable lithium compounds with already existing infrastructure. This not only reduces operating expenses but also minimizes the need for large-scale infrastructure investments, giving us a significant cost advantage over competitors.
- One of the Most Sustainable Lithium Solutions: Our process significantly reduces the environmental footprint of lithium extraction by minimizing water usage and carbon footprint. Using produced water from oil and gas operations, we turn a waste stream into one of the most sustainable lithium sources on the market, aligning with the highest ESG standards.
- Fastest to Market: Our solution accelerates lithium production timelines, enabling us to bring lithium compounds to market faster than traditional mining methods. Oil and gas companies can quickly capitalize on new revenue streams with shorter project development cycles.
By offering a cost-effective, environmentally responsible, and fast-to-market solution, Lithium Harvest ensures that oil and midstream companies can stay ahead of the curve, meeting the demand for sustainable lithium while maximizing profitability.
