VLT Forges Strategic Technology Collaborations The global lithium market is experiencing a seismic shift, fueled by the growing demand for electric vehicles (EVs) and the increasing emphasis on clean energy solutions. As nations around the world accelerate their transition towards sustainable transportation and renewable energy sources, lithium has emerged as a critical component in the quest for a greener future.
Among the trailblazers in this transformative landscape is Volt Lithium Corp. (ticker: VLT.v or VLTLF for US investors), a company committed to becoming North America's premier commercial producer of lithium hydroxide and lithium carbonates from oilfield brines.
With its unwavering focus on technology and extraction methods, VLT is continuing to make strides toward its lithium production goals. In a recent announcement, VLT unveiled strategic technology collaborations with two renowned research labs located at the University of Alberta: the Advanced Water Research Lab (AWRL), and a lab in the Chemical and Materials Engineering Department.
The primary objective of these collaborations is to leverage nanotechnology and water processing expertise to remove contaminants from oilfield brine, optimizing its usability for VLT's proprietary Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) technology.
VLT's Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) technology is at the heart of their innovative approach to lithium production. This cutting-edge method allows for highly efficient and cost-effective extraction of lithium from oilfield brines.
These collaborations are a crucial step towards streamlining the extraction process, enhancing operating efficiencies, and ultimately driving VLT closer to its goal of commercial lithium production.
VLT is also in the process of establishing a permanent pilot to test its technologies in real time, including those advanced through these strategic collaborations. The permanent pilot is expected to expedite the advancement to first-stage commercial operations, reaffirming VLT's position as a trailblazer in the lithium extraction industry.
