Salton Sea Brine is a chemical engineer's dream.
Its Hot,
Its Liquid,
& Its Concentrated.

The disadvantage is that it has impurities

We propose using electrolysis to create lithium hydroxide directly from lithium chloride without a lithium carbonate intermediate.

Electrolysis has three rules
Brine Purity, Brine Purity, Brine Purity

The DLE-to-ELE operating philosophy is "Once its clean, keep it clean"

At a high level our innovations include:
Oxidizing in brine prep, strict hydrodynamic flow control, a combinational cascade of coupled unit operations, and self-manufacture of high purity HCl to achieve increased system yields.

The trick to making this work is a whole plant integrated holistic approach
Our team has a proven track record executing chemical megaprojects from innovation to commercial operationalization.

These innovations are strategically placed in the high-capacity separation units that keep the operation costs of the overall system low.

How low ? Well, Here’s a look at our annual production:
This project will cost about $400MM with a $4000 OpEX
By Year 3, first drop on the commercial system.
Year 5 brings full operationalization with an EBITDA of $130MM.
And exit at year 6 with a $1.3 Billion Valuation
