Advanced separation membrane for sustainable lithium mining and recycling

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The project aims to develop and commercialise a novel membrane-based technology based on a newly invented lithium-selective ceramic-polymer membrane for low-cost and environmentally friendly lithium recovery and recycling from various sources. The project expects to generate deep knowledge in the design and scaling up of lithium ion separation membranes, and create a lithium extraction prototype for on-site lithium extraction testing. Expected outcomes of the project include full commercialisation of the lithium separation membrane and new intellectual property for establishing a new membrane manufacturing industry that is critically needed for transforming lithium mining and recycling industries.
