Company Overview

Altillion is a process technology company specializing in mineral extraction and concentration from brine resources. The company has developed proprietary methods for extracting valuable minerals, with a focus on lithium recovery for battery production. Their expertise is built on decades of commercial-scale brine handling experience, enabling them to significantly contribute to sustainable battery material production.

Battery Technology

Altillion’s core technology is the ALIX (Altillion Lithium Extraction) platform, an advanced Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) system that concentrates lithium from 15 mg/L to over 30,000 mg/L in one step to produce battery-grade materials with low environmental impact. The ALIX platform has two configurations: LiCon Process, which focuses on lithium concentration with reduced space and lower capital and operating costs without reverse osmosis or forced evaporation; and LiMEx Process, which combines isolation and concentration in a single step for certain brines. Key features include the industry’s lowest organic/aqueous ratio, complete organic recovery and reuse, minimal residence times, a compact footprint, and direct conversion to battery-grade products.

Products

The company’s key offering is the ALIX platform with two configurations: LiCon Process for lithium concentration and LiMEx Process for combined isolation and concentration. Both produce battery-grade lithium products efficiently and sustainably.

Recent Projects

Altillion partnered with Telescope Innovations to develop a streamlined two-step process for producing battery-quality lithium carbonate with purity exceeding 99.9%. This combines Altillion’s ALIX technology with Telescope’s ReCRFT™ recrystallization technology, improving cost and energy efficiency over traditional five-step methods. Telescope Innovations is advancing this pilot technology in Vancouver, BC to support sustainable North American lithium supply chains.
