Catch up fast: Typical methods for extracting the lithium used in batteries require evaporating large pools of briny water. It's a slow, inefficient process.
A handful of companies are pursuing what's known as direct lithium extraction (DLE), a category of different technologies that aim to make the process more efficient.
The latest: International Battery Metals says it can build a smaller and more mobile extraction system.
The one it sent to Utah was built in Lake Charles, Louisiana.
The system spans about 3 acres, small compared with conventional lithium extraction. It has annual production capacity of up to 5,000 tons.
The company is completing testing. It expects to bring it online in the next three months.
Reality check: Before this project, International Battery Metals had completed only a three-month test of its lithium extraction system."
