Technology
Conventional extraction technologies
- Expensive chemical inputs (Boron removal, Liming)
- Substantial brine consumption from salar aquifers
- No re-injection, as water has been evaporated by sun
- Solar process takes time and is weather sensitive
- Low lithium yield, and post processing necessary
Adionics' technology
