IRAP Contributions to Firms projects stimulate wealth creation for Canada through technological innovation. | Les projets des Contributions aux entreprises stimulent la création de richesse au Canada grâce à l’innovation technologique.
Description
In this project, Summit Nanotech will develop and validate their proprietary, green nanotechnology-based lithium extraction technology for deployment as a modular unit to well sites in the field. The technology will help lithium mining companies more reliably and quickly produce high-quality product at higher yields, with lower operation costs and lower environmental impacts, including less water use and decreased GHG emissions.
Description (French)
Dans le cadre de ce projet, Summit Nanotech mettra au point et validera sa technologie exclusive d'extraction du lithium basée sur les nanotechnologies vertes, en vue de son déploiement sous forme d'unité modulaire sur les sites de forage sur le terrain. Cette technologie aidera les sociétés d'extraction du lithium à produire de manière plus fiable et plus rapide des produits de haute qualité à des rendements plus élevés, avec des coûts d'exploitation plus faibles et des impacts environnementaux moindres, notamment une utilisation réduite de l'eau et une diminution des émissions de GES.
