The Tough Tech problem we are solving
Rechargeable batteries power the energy transition, yet most lithium comes from overseas via polluting open-pit mining or inefficient brine evaporation, while new Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) methods falter on chemicals, freshwater, power demands, and costs, leaving vast North American resources untapped.
About our solution
Lithios' Advanced Lithium Extraction (ALE) uses electricity-powered, highly selective electrodes to capture lithium from brines, stripping contaminants like sodium and magnesium without chemicals or solvents. This delivers dramatically lower costs, energy use, and freshwater needs than DLE—unlocking uneconomic domestic sources for a secure, sustainable battery-grade lithium supply chain at scale.
