E3 Metals has opened its direct lithium extraction (DLE) development and testing facility in Calgary. This facility will be the site of the continued progression towards commercialization of the company’s DLE technology.
This includes the scale-up and lab prototype campaign in preparation for the field pilot plant. All equipment within the facility is owned by E3 Metals’ and will be operated exclusively by E3 Metals’ growing team of technical experts. E3 Metals’ DLE process test work will continue to selectively extract lithium directly from oilfield brine sourced from the Leduc Reservoir within E3 Metals’ resource area. In addition, the company will use the space to ramp up development of the full flowsheet; the production of lithium hydroxide from oilfield brine, throughout 2021.
“We are very excited to be consolidating our direct lithium extraction process development work into our new E3 Metals’ testing facility right here in Calgary. Our team is well on the way to transferring E3 Metals’ core process development work to Calgary and we anticipate full operational efficiency before the end of the month,” said Chris Doornbos, E3 Metals’ president and CEO.
