"Experts say a saltwater, or brine, aquifer under the #Smackover Formation may contain enough #lithium to produce batteries for 50 million EVs.
Umberson said this new process, dubbed Direct Lithium Extraction (or #DLE), will benefit south #Arkansas and the lithium industry as a whole because of its high lithium recovery rates and minimal environmental impact.
[But] Umberson and Donnelly say further independent research must be done on DLE and its long-term impacts."

Oh joy! What coverups will #ExxonLied tell about #Lithium #pollution? #Exxon does NOT have a good track record! Also, #DLE, the process Exxon is touting, "is an emerging technology, and most information about the process and its impact comes from the industry rather than peer-reviewed literature or other independent sources."

ExxonMobil is a lithium company nowExxonMobil plans on extracting and producing battery-grade lithium from the #SmackoverFormation in #Arkansas.
By Emma Roth
November 13, 2023“ExxonMobil is getting into the lithium production business. The company announced on Monday that it’s going to become a 'leading producer of lithium' by opening its first drilling operation in southern Arkansas.
“The demand for lithium has grown in the past couple of years, with the metal serving as a key ingredient in the rechargeable batteries that power electric vehicles, phones, laptops, and other tech. ExxonMobil plans to start producing lithium in 2027 and says it could make enough lithium to supply over 1 million electric vehicles per year by 2030.
“Earlier this year, ExxonMobil purchased 120,000 acres of lithium-rich land spanning a geologic formation — called the Smackover Formation — in Arkansas. To access the lithium, the company will first drill 10,000 feet below the surface using gas and oil machinery. From there, it will then use direct lithium extraction (DLE) to separate the lithium from the saltwater it’s mixed with. Once that’s done, ExxonMobil will inject the saltwater back into the ground.
“ExxonMobil says the DLE process 'produces fewer carbon emissions than hard rock mining and requires significantly less land.' The company will produce the battery-grade lithium on-site, which it will call Mobil Lithium. This technically isn’t the first time ExxonMobil is getting involved in the battery business, as the company manufactured the first lithium-ion battery in the 1970s.
“'Lithium is essential to the energy transition, and ExxonMobil has a leading role to play in paving the way for electrification,' Dan Ammann, the president of ExxonMobil Low Carbon Solutions, said in a statement. 'This landmark project applies decades of ExxonMobil expertise to unlock vast supplies of North American lithium with far fewer environmental impacts than traditional mining operations.'
“In addition to ExxonMobil, Canada-based Standard Lithium also plans on extracting lithium from the Smackover Formation. Meanwhile, Lithium Americas has begun mining for the metal at Thacker Pass in Nevada, and other companies are eyeing California’s Salton Sea as a potential lithium extraction site.
“Bringing lithium extraction stateside could make a big difference for EV automakers that want to produce batteries here in the US, as most of them currently source lithium from other countries, including Australia, Argentina, Chile, and China.”

#ExxonLied before, #Exxon will lie again! REAL oversight is needed (not just revolving door lobbyist/government/corporate shill phonies)!
What do frontline communities want to know about lithium extraction? Identifying research areas to support environmental justice in Lithium Valley, California
Elsevier
Energy Research & Social Science
Volume 99, May 2023,Abstract:
"#CleanEnergy technologies provide global benefits through climate mitigation and many local #environmental benefits for consumers. However, the supply chains that produce them inevitably impose some environmental burden on the communities where they operate. To align with the principles of environmental justice, the burdens and benefits of clean energy supply chains should be distributed equitably, with decision-making processes that empower local communities to participate. Academic research can play a key role as a source of transparent information that addresses the concerns of frontline communities; however, this requires deliberate effort during the initial stages of research to understand what those concerns are and seek data that will respond to them. As a case study, this article analyzes public meetings about a developing lithium industry in Imperial, California, and reviews relevant literature to build a research agenda that is guided by the priorities of local stakeholders. We find that #WaterConsumption, public #health impacts, local employment, and opportunities to participate are high-priority topics for community members. We also compare the content of discussions across groups, finding that participants in community-focused meetings mainly asked about the local impacts of the process, whereas state-led discussions focused on the sustainability of direct lithium extraction (#DLE) compared to conventional production methods. To address the priorities of frontline communities, we recommend evaluating water consumption in the context of regional availability, including local air emissions and waste streams in sustainability analyses, and monitoring the impact on local employment over time to ensure the promises made during development accrue to communities."One promising alternative is direct lithium extraction (DLE), a method of separating lithium from brine through chemical processing rather than relying on the slower process of natural evaporation. DLE enables lithium recovery from lower-concentration sources of brine, including mineral-rich geothermal fluids that are already brought to the surface for energy production. DLE has a smaller physical and water footprint than status quo production methods and can use energy from onsite geothermal power plants, resulting in lower carbon emissions. However, DLE is an emerging technology, and most information about the process and its impact comes from the #industry rather than #peerreviewed literature or other independent sources."

In den letzten zwei Jahren hat eine Arbeitsgruppe der #DataLiteracy Working Group des #stifterverband|s einen Fragenpool zur Evaluation von studentischen #Datenkompetenzen erarbeitet. Lehrende können sich aus dem Fragenpool bedienen und selbst einen für ihr Angebot passenden Fragebogen zusammenstellen und als PDF oder CSV exportieren. Danke an die Kolleg*innen für die tolle Zusammenarbeit und an den Stifterverband für die Unterstützung und Umsetzung. Das Ganze steht natürlich unter einer #CCLizenz. Gerne teilen!
