Abstract

Rapid uptake of lithium-centric technology, e.g., electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage, is increasing the demand for efficient technologies for lithium extraction from aqueous sources. Among various lithium-extraction technologies, membrane processes hold great promise due to energy effi...
