BatteriesnewsYPF’s Y-TEC and XtraLit Join Forces to Pioneer Sustainable Direct Lithium Extraction in ArgentinaYPF’s subsidiary Y-TEC and Israeli firm XtraLit have signed a cooperation agreement to develop joint Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) projects in Argentina. The partnership aims to leverage XtraLit’s ion-exchange technology to optimize extraction from local brine resources, addressing environmental concerns and expanding commercial opportunities in the global new energy market.PR NewswireYPF's Y-TEC and XtraLit Join Forces to Pioneer Sustainable Direct Lithium Extraction in ArgentinaYPF's Y-TEC and Israeli company XtraLit signed a cooperation agreement to develop direct lithium extraction (DLE) projects in Argentina. The partnership aims to apply XtraLit's ion-exchange technology to Argentina's brine resources, targeting sustainable and economically efficient lithium extraction. The initiative is poised to attract investment and align with global sustainability standards.Innovation News NetworkXtraLit: Cleaner, cost-effective, and more efficient lithium extractionXtraLit Ltd, an Israeli company established in 2021, has developed a Direct Lithium Extraction technology using a proprietary patented sorbent capable of processing brines with lithium concentrations as low as 5-100 mg/l, compared to the 1 g/l threshold required by conventional evaporation methods. The technology, based on ion exchange, achieves two-to-three orders of magnitude concentration increase and costs less than $4,000 per ton of lithium carbonate, addressing both environmental concerns and the projected supply gap where current production will meet less than 40% of 2030 demand. The company has raised $25 million, signed agreements with partners across Israel, Jordan, Canada, the US, France, Turkey, and Argentina, and is installing demo pilots at partner facilities with a full production potential of 70,000 tons of lithium carbonate per year.
