This document presents a summary of the engineering and consulting services of K-UTEC Salt Technologies required for the different project phases of typical lithium mining and lithium salt production projects.
global demand for lithium compounds is expected to approach 1 million tonnes by 2026 (Roskill, 2021). Lithium carbonate is the key raw material in lithium-ion battery manufacturing. Over recent years, these have become the principal rechargeable batteries for use in electric vehicles, mobile phones and for
This document outlines a national blueprint to guide investments in the urgent development of a domestic lithium-battery manufacturing value chain that creates equitable clean-energy manufacturing jobs in America, building a clean-energy economy and helping to mitigate climate change impacts.
INTRODUCTION. An accelerated energy transition requires a growing supply of critical materials (Gielen, 2021) and IRENA’s World Energy Transition Outlook (WETO) elaborates on the importance of batteries for the energy transition (IRENA 2021).
The Maricunga Lithium Brine project’s Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) supports 20,000 tonnes per annum (t/a) production of Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE) over 20 years. Project NPV1 (leveraged basis) of US$1.302B before tax at 8% discount rate, providing an IRR of 29.8% and a 3.5 year Payback. ers, with OPEX of US$3,772 per tonne (/t) wit.
The LIBRA model represents major systemic feedback loops and delays across the supply chain. This report provides a complete documentation for the LIBRA model, including model assumptions, data, scenario analysis results, and sensitivity analysis of the model’s input space.
1 paź 2019 · In this first part, a novel resource production model is developed to create scenarios of future lithium demand and production characteristics (e.g., timing, location, and ore type).
