Summit Nanotech is evolving today's lithium mines by extracting more high-purity lithium from natural resources faster and more sustainably to support the global electric vehicle (EV) demand.
Sustainable innovation and leadership is at the core of everything we do. At Summit Nanotech, we are pioneering technologies to set the new standards for lithium extraction today.
The Summit denaLi solution captures the lithium ion in brine using nanotechnology. After extraction, Summit reinjects the lithium-depleted brine back into the salar to preserve nearby freshwater aquifer resources. The purified lithium solution is then refined using limited chemicals to minimize environmental impacts.
This process shortens the average industry rate of production from 18 months to 1 day, which means getting to the market faster and more sustainably.
Summit Nanotech was founded in 2018 to amplify the performance of today’s lithium miners and meet the global demand for electric vehicles (EVs). Deploying our patented direct lithium extraction (DLE) technology, greater quantities of high-purity lithium product are collected faster while preserving the natural resources of communities. Grounded in values of trust and adaptability, we work with customers to refine our technology for the complexities of their brine.
To build an innovative, healthy, humancentric company of leaders effecting positive impacts on humanity.
