Pure Lithium Announces Funding Award from the United States Department of Energy’s Vehicle Technology Office in Partnership with Argonne National Laboratory
BOSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Pure Lithium Corporation, a disruptive Boston-based vertically integrated lithium metal battery technology company, is pleased to announce the acceptance of funding from the Vehicle Technology Office to scale production of lithium metal anodes from recycled lithium metal, in partnership with Argonne National Laboratory.
United States. Recovering and using this lithium in Pure Lithium’s batteries would create a closed loop, fully domestic supply source. Pure Lithium will work in partnership with Argonne National Laboratory to recover lithium metal from one such waste stream and to demonstrate and scale Pure Lithium’s patent-pending technology to use recycled metal to produce pure lithium metal anodes for our lithium metal vanadium oxide batteries.
Emilie Bodoin, Pure Lithium Founder and CEO, comments:
While our core technology is combining metal extraction from lithium-bearing brines with anode production, our team is highly skilled in metallurgical processing.
“The opportunity to extract value from a waste stream utilizing technology that complements our large portfolio of patents was one we could not pass up.I am delighted to work with Argonne National Laboratory, leveraging their incredible team and facilities to demonstrate and scale this technology. External partners are the key to accelerating our time to market as we continue to execute on our business plan, securing all commercially viable intellectual property surrounding lithium metal anode and battery production, ensuring a secure low-cost domestic supply chain.”
