EC 231-102-5
Also known as Li.
chemXplore tracks 9 projects producing lithium, of which 3 are active.
Of the active ones, 3 new construction.
LXM treats acidic battery leachates, HP3 targets high-pressure processing, and SRM2 removes sulfate from seawater injection flows.
A second pivotal study found improvement in symptoms by Day 3; the findings will support a planned US regulatory submission.
Upstream work finished at a 4,000 m Argentina site, raising commercial carbonate output to 48,000 t/year and enabling a 50,000 t/year lithium hydroxide system when linked to a 2027 downstream plant.
Long-term deal more than doubles prior volumes, expands supply from NCA to LFP, LMO and synthetic graphite, and secures non‑PFE materials for buyers.
Moving from startup to series production via a fabless model and long-term manufacturing deal; regional European manufacturing and sodium‑ion chemistry aim to reduce lithium dependence.
Highlights binders, PVDF and thermal/safety materials for EV and stationary batteries; 15% PVDF capacity expansion completed in June 2026; visit Booth #2714 Oct 12–15 in Detroit.
Site and infrastructure works accelerate at Dunkirk gigafactory; electrical grid connection, supplier qualification and local talent programmes are advancing.
Priority access to a new Gen4 inorganic solid‑state cell; Mercedes will run electrical, thermal and safety trials to assess suitability for future EV platforms.
Validated cold‑start to −40°C and multi‑segment testing support move from technology development to pilot‑scale and small‑series production readiness.
Assessment finds no need to revise current recycling efficiency and material recovery targets; calls for continued monitoring and sets next review by 18 August 2031.
chemXplore tracks 7 plants producing lithium in 4 countries.
