Pure Lithium Company, a disruptive Boston-based, vertically built-in lithium metallic battery expertise firm, is happy to announce a strategic settlement with Kingston Course of Metallurgy (KPM) to collaboratively scale, design, assemble, and fee Pure Lithium’s proprietary pilot-scale lithium metallic anode manufacturing reactor.
Pure Lithium is advancing battery expertise with a lithium metallic vanadium oxide battery enabled by a novel, scalable, and cost-effective lithium metallic electroplating course of, Brine to Battery™, that bypasses conventional lithium compound manufacturing. In collaboration with KPM, identified for its deep experience in designing and optimizing advanced chemical and metallurgical methods, the corporate is creating a totally built-in demonstration reactor able to producing extremely pure lithium metallic anodes of various thicknesses. The reactor will show the technical and financial viability of Pure Lithium’s end-to-end course of, encompassing selective lithium extraction, electrochemical plating and environment friendly supplies recycling. The venture units the muse for future pilot plant and business growth, supporting Pure Lithium’s mission to sustainably convey lithium from Brine to Battery™.
Emilie Bodoin, Pure Lithium Founder and CEO, feedback: “Our lithium metal anode technology was a necessary first step to commercializing our lithium metal batteries. Without this technology at scale, these batteries would never reach commercialization due to the high cost and low quality of lithium metal produced by existing methods. I was first introduced to Kingston Process Metallurgy during my time with Argonne National Laboratory and I am pleased to work with them, given their deep expertise in metallurgical system design and development. The team at KPM will play a critical role in scaling our innovative lithium electroplating technology into a fully operational pilot-scale reactor. Their hands-on approach and experience in scaling complex processes gives us confidence as we move toward pilot-scale production and continue building a truly next-generation lithium metal battery at commercially viable price point.”
About Pure Lithium
Pure Lithium is a disruptive Boston-based lithium metallic battery expertise firm led by its founders, inventor and lithium skilled, CEO Emilie Bodoin, and world-renowned battery and metallurgical skilled, MIT Emeritus Professor Donald R. Sadoway, as full-time CSO. The Firm’s novel Brine to Battery™ expertise combines metallic extraction and anode manufacturing, bypassing conventional lithium compound manufacturing. The ensuing pure lithium metallic anode is the core element of our lithium metallic vanadium oxide battery, a step-change enchancment over right this moment’s lithium-ion expertise in cell efficiency, price and security. Moreover, the battery is freed from graphite, cobalt, nickel and manganese. For extra data, go to www.purelithium.io or e mail news@purelithium.io.
