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.

Discover our revolutionary solution
  • 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.
