Altillion

Altillion is the lowest cost, lowest footprint way to extract, concentrate, and purify critical minerals from brine. ALIX & IRIS technology platforms enhance minerals recovery and reduce levelized production costs. Lithium: ALIX concentrates and purifies lithium with no membranes or thermal evaporation. Copper: ALIX enhances copper recovery from existing mine operations. IRIS process recovers high-value minerals from oilfield produced water. Broadly innovating the efficiency of liquid-liquid extraction in metals & mining. In lithium brine applications, ALIX complements existing ion exchange and sorbent DLE technologies by significantly reducing capital requirements for the downstream concentrating of lithium in the eluate stream. Regardless of the starting lithium concentration, ALIX maximizes lithium recovery and output lithium concentration without requiring reverse osmosis, forced evaporation, or other high-cost dewatering equipment. In pursuit of the highest efficiency flow sheet for each project, Altillion's customers view ALIX as synergistic to other DLE technologies. With extensive expertise in brine management and processing, Altillion's team has a proven track record of commercializing technologies and building field operations for brine applications. This positions Altillion to help ensure that DLE projects can fulfill the growing global demand for lithium.
