Demand for EVs is increasing in order to reduce the environmental load, and the increase in production of lithium-ion batteries is becoming a major trend. Therefore, the recovery of lithium (Li) from Li resources other than mineral ores has been paid attention. Our company was established in October 2021, with the intention of industrializing Li selective adsorbents and contributing to society through Li recovery plants. We will report on the activity status for two years and the future development of Li recovery from salt lake brine and the other brines.
