Standard Lithium (TSX.V: SLL) (OTCQX: STLHF) (FRA: S5L), an innovative technology and lithium development company, today announced the successful start-up of its industrial-scale Direct Lithium Extraction Demonstration Plant at Lanxess’ South Plant facility in southern Arkansas. Utilizing Standard Lithium’s proprietary LiSTR Direct Lithium Extraction technology, the plant has been successfully commissioned during the first part of 2020 and is now operating on a 24/7 basis, extracting lithium directly from Lanxess’ tail brine. The company’s project team in Arkansas is currently conducting a series of systematic optimization exercises to calibrate the site and examine how performance can be further improved. “This is an extremely exciting time for Standard Lithium and our project partner, LANXESS. Our team has been working tirelessly over the last few months to fully commission the plant, despite the challenges of working in a necessarily modified and restricted operating environment. COVID-19 related limitations have complicated some of the commissioning activities, but our team, led by Mr. Bruce Seitz has done a fantastic job to safely and effectively get the plant commissioned, and transition it into full-time operation. The plant is now extracting lithium directly from Lanxess’ tail brine, on a continuous 24/7 basis and we look forward to providing additional news regarding its performance,” Standard Lithium president and COO Dr. Andy Robinson stated in the news release.
