Commercializes a direct-lithium-extraction (DLE) sorbent and CO2‑based regeneration process for extracting lithium from brine, offering high lithium selectivity, fast adsorption/desorption, and sorbent life >10× versus acid‑regenerated sorbents. CO2 regeneration acts as a carbon sink and cuts water use by >60%, lowering operating costs for lithium production and supporting electrification supply chains.
