#FunFactFriday: With lithium being in such high demand, the race is on to find efficient extraction methods with minimal downsides. A new saltwater extraction method achieves 90% extraction, with freshwater as a by-product. What are your thoughts on lithium extraction?

So, apparently, this #Lithium project didn't pan out because the brine was so corrosive, it destroyed the equipment used to process it. YIKES! #Exxon is planning on using a similar process (closed loop extraction) in #Arkansas.
General Motors looks to California for its next lithium supply
The US automaker is investing in closed-loop extraction from the Salton Sea.
Jonathan M. Gitlin - 7/2/2021,
"CTR's Hell's Kitchen project will extract lithium salts from geothermal brine in the Salton Sea. By using heat from the brine to power the processing, it hopes to produce 15,000 tons of lithium carbonate and 49.9 MW of energy in 2023."
