FilmTec™ LiNE-HDR Element
FilmTec™ LiNE-HDR element is a nanofiltration membrane specifically designed for lithium stream purification in Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) applications, particularly challenging chloride-rich and high-hardness brines. Its advanced membrane chemistry delivers high lithium-to-divalent cation selectivity, effectively removing impurities such as calcium and magnesium while maintaining superior lithium passage and minimizing lithium loss. The high-productivity design supports greater lithium recovery, lower energy consumption, and reliable long-term performance, helping producers optimize brine purification and improve overall process efficiency.
Uses
- Lithium stream purification in chloride-rich brine mining from salars, salt lakes, geothermal brine, oilfield produced water, etc.
- Specifically designed for high-hardness brine such as preconcentrated DLE sorbent eluent streams to achieve an effective balance between hardness removal, lithium recovery, and energy consumption.
Advantages
- High lithium to divalent cation selectivity over a wide operating pH range enabling impurity removal from direct lithium extraction (DLE) brine streams.
- State-of-the-art membrane chemistry delivering superior lithium passage for typical chloride-rich lithium brine streams, with negligible or no lithium mass loss in high-recovery systems.
- High productivity membrane allowing for increased water and lithium mass recovery and/or reduced energy consumption.
- Expertly designed and optimized membrane chemistry providing reliable performance and sustained operational longevity.
- Engineered element construction helps to reduce the operational challenges associated with fouling.
- Dry element availability enables easy transportation and handling.
