GEA’s credentials and broad portfolio for the production and processing of lithium begins right after mining with refining the intermediate products and ends with a dried powder, which must be at least 99.5 per cent pure to meet exacting battery material standards.
We’re supporting customers around the globe with:
– Lithium concentration from brine or spodumene
– Lithium salt crystallization and purification
– Impurity removal by centrifugal separation
– Fluid bed drying of lithium salt compounds
– Spray drying of lithium cathode & anode materials
– By-product recovery from lithium processing
– Process development for lithium recycling
Our process specialists are available for both test work and process development, followed up by skilled project managers who understand customers’ specific KPIs and can bring projects on stream, on schedule. This includes helping customers meet strict environmental regulations, overcome rigorous permitting processes and finding solutions to water scarcity, by generating water for reuse in the process or zero liquid discharge (ZLD) systems.
