CLIENT OVERVIEW
Our Client has innovated critical mineral solution for a cost- and resource-efficient extraction method that is clean, socially conscious, and validated to work at scale under real-world conditions with even the most challenging brines.
Their Selective Absorption technology extracts a specific chemical from brine with water and reinjects the brine into the ground. Their technology generates minimal waste byproducts, greatly reducing any potential environmental effects. Furthermore, the technology does not use evaporation ponds, salt piles, or large footprint and causing less habitat destruction.
