As the premier worldwide event covering lithium and the green energy economy, the Conference will feature a presentation by IBC on green, direct lithium extraction from brines, ores and recycled batteries using SuperLig® Molecular Recognition Technology ("MRT").   

Updates will be given on the SuperLig® MRT pilot plant, with a production capacity of up to 77 tpa lithium hydroxide monohydrate (LiOH.H2O), being installed by SIMCO, a joint venture between Chilean Grupo Errázuriz and Taiwanese Simbalik Group, to process brines at the Salar de Maricunga. A full scale SuperLig® MRT plant (20000 tpa LiOH.H₂O) is to be constructed after completion of piloting.

The SuperLig^® MRT direct lithium extraction process is based on green chemistry principles and uses no organic solvents. Reagents (dilute acid and water) are recycled. Automated column design incorporates green engineering - simple, compact, easy to use. The SuperLig® MRT process provides:  

Steven R. Izatt, President and CEO of IBC commented, "IBC's SuperLig® MRT process for direct lithium extraction is a world-class selective separations technology based on green chemistry and green engineering. We are proud to cosponsor the upcoming Lithium Supply & Markets 2021 Conference.
