This type of material is the only solid-state material known in the scientific community which is capable of transporting lithium ions with superhigh selectivity over other metal ions:</p><br/><p style="text-indent: 2em;"><strong>SLi/Mg &gt; 430,000, SLi/Na &gt; 16,000</strong></p><br/><p>Therefore, it is also the only membrane technology discovered thus far which can extract lithium from resources with extremely low lithium content, such as seawater (0.2 ppm). Coupled with electrodialysis, we are able to continuously extract lithium product &gt; 99% purity from seawater.</p><br/><p>Electricity consumption is minimal and the entire lithium extraction process can be powered by solar. Hydrogen and chlorine as by-product can be sold as valuable commodities, which more than offset the cost of power.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/upload/image/2023-09/1695607461494807.gif" title="1695607461494807.gif" alt="1695607461494807.gif" width="800" height="450" border="0" vspace="0" style="width: 800px; height: 450px;"/></p><p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 30px; font-weight: lighter;">Large Scale Membrane Fabrication</span><br/></p></div></div><div class="jl-con1"><div class="desc"><p>The mass production of the ceramic membrane can be achieved through conventional glass manufacturing processes, which have the potential to reduce the membrane cost to &lt; 10 USD/m2. In contrast, the price of the typical ion-exchanging material used in competing technologies exceeds 1000 USD/m2.</p><br/><p>Lihytech membrane is expected to be more durable with less maintenance needed as compared to those used by our DLE competitors.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/upload/image/2023-09/1695400027216259.png" title="1695400027216259.png" alt="mm.png"/></p></div></div>
