THIS Clean Lithium Tech Is Challenging China’s Control Of The Battery Supply Chain!

In this episode of @EverythingElectricShow we visit Mangrove Lithium in British Columbia to uncover how their groundbreaking electrochemical process could revolutionise lithium refining.

Traditional lithium processing relies on chemical-intensive methods that create huge amounts of sodium sulphate waste and carry high costs of disposal. Mangrove Lithium’s proprietary technology replaces chemicals with electrons, eliminating waste streams, lowering emissions, and delivering ultra-high purity lithium — all while being modular and easy to scale.

With global lithium demand surging and 70% of refining capacity currently concentrated in China, innovations like this could play a crucial role in diversifying the supply chain and supporting even more resilient growth of EVs worldwide.

From lab-scale electrolysers to full-scale facilities capable of supplying lithium for half a million electric vehicles, Mangrove Lithium could well be paving the way for cleaner, more efficient, and more sustainable battery materials. Enjoy!
