Its role Technology / equipment supplier
NORAM Electrolysis Systems Inc. (NESI) is a privately held Canadian engineering and technology company focused on electrochemical process solutions for sustainable industrial chemical production.
The company specializes in salt-splitting membrane electrolysis, with its flagship NORSCAND® platform enabling the conversion of lithium chloride or lithium sulphate brines into high-purity battery-grade lithium hydroxide monohydrate, as well as the recovery of caustic and acid from sodium sulphate waste streams.
Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, NESI maintains engineering, R&D, and manufacturing facilities in Richmond, BC, and an EU distribution centre in Hradec Králové, Czechia. It operates primarily in North America and Europe while supporting projects globally, including in South America and Asia.
Spun out in late 2022 from the electrochemical division of NORAM Engineering & Constructors Ltd., NESI is a wholly-owned subsidiary of NORAM Industrial Holdings Inc. and part of the broader NORAM Group, which provides engineering, fabrication, and project execution support.
NESI offers comprehensive services from process development and pilot testing to full-scale plant design, supply, and commissioning. It maintains long-standing partnerships, notably with Permascand AB of Sweden for electrode technology, and positions itself as a leader in advancing electrified, lower-emission alternatives to traditional chemical-intensive refining processes in the lithium battery materials sector.
Also known as NORAM Electrolysis Systems.
