Determining the Product Carbon Footprint of Lithium Products:

This guidance launched by the International Lithium Association (ILiA) is to create a product carbon footprint (PCF) assessment for key lithium intermediates and battery-grade lithium carbonate and hydroxide specialty chemicals produced from brine or rock minerals in a standardized way.

About the guidance:

  • It is the first PCF guidance specific to the lithium industry.
  • The guidance is designed to be a short, practical document which addresses and summarizes the key issues in the dozens of standards which are relevant to a lithium PCF.
  • It contains a checklist of typical greenhouse gas hotspots in lithium production to prevent omissions in the PCF calculation.
  • It provides clear instructions and examples of how to manage the contribution of co-products.
  • It is agnostic to the production route (using brine, rock, clay etc).
  • The lithium PCF guidance was made by the lithium industry and its stakeholders.
  • ILiA will periodically publish updates of this guidance.

An introduction to DLE

This report explores the various technologies used for direct lithium extraction (DLE) as they stand today. It explores various DLE methods, including sorption, ion exchange, solvent extraction, membrane, electrochemical, carbonation processes etc.

Each method’s mechanisms, advantages, disadvantages, and technological readiness are analysed, along with a comparison of their commercial potential. This work also examines the economic viability of DLE compared to conventional extraction methods. Additionally, the potential sustainability benefits of DLE, such as lower carbon, water, and land footprints, are discussed.

It is important to appreciate that each brine is unique (lithium content, total dissolved solids (TDS), situation…) and while the techniques described here work well at certain sites, each brine requires a tailored approach.
