Project Objectives

Amanda Hall, CEO and founder of Summit Nanotech, is looking to reduce the world’s reliance on fossil fuels by creating an efficient and sustainable lithium-ion extraction process for brine water. Summit Nanotech intends to keep up with the rapid demand for lithium, as it is a vital component of EV batteries and other electronics, and to tap into a fast-growing multi-billion dollar market.

Expected Results

Summit Nanotech’s lithium extraction technology, called denaLi DLE, is expected to improve upon existing extraction processes by reducing GHG emissions, minimizing the use of chemicals and cutting waste by 90%. Their solutions are scalable and expected to be able to serve high emitting industry clients.
