Greener Lithium Processing | Makers at the Lab

AMES National Laboratory

Lithium is in high demand as a vital component in a host of modern technologies, and current extraction methods for this element have their drawbacks. Scientists at Ames National Laboratory's Critical Materials Innovation Hub (CMI) have developed a more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly process that is a creative solution to increasing and diversifying the supply of lithium in the United States. #departmentofenergy #lithium #scienceandtechnology
