NORAM Electrolysis Systems Inc.

We’re grateful for this spotlight from Trade & Invest BC, and it’s timely given the recent focus on trade diversification.   From the successful deployment of our first-of-a-kind 800 tonne-per-year lithium hydroxide electrochemical conversion plant Canada in 2017, to now having eight industrial demo systems deployed around the world, NESI is reliably delivering on milestones as we naturally evolve from a technology developer to a global technology provider and equipment supplier. Our BC-owned, BC-developed, BC-manufactured technology is fostering sustainable, domestic production of lithium around the world. It’s built on 25 years of experience in scaling up novel electrochemical technologies, coupled with the industrial-scale know-how that comes from 40 years of delivering on industrial projects worldwide. We offer commercial-scale lithium brine electrolysis using full-scale equipment at our Mitchell Island facility, allowing customers the benefits and validation of testing their unique brines at full scale, expediting their projects to full commercial production scales. We will soon be doubling our facilities capacity with the addition of the Lithium Electrolysis Validation Plant to nearly 1,000 TPY LHM in Richmond, BC.   Our immediate horizon is now focused on the commercial-scale plants, targeting scales of 5,000-40,000 TPY LHM. To put this in perspective, a 40,000 TPY LHM plant produces enough LHM for 800,000 Electric Vehicles annually, while large is still a drop in the bucket of global demand. Now our focus shifts to de-risking the supply chain, including stocking spare parts for full-scale operations. This commitment supports our clients in Europe, Oceania, the USA, and South America, and gives us the foundation to deliver in expanding markets in Asia and the Middle East. This scale of success would not have been possible without the support of the Government of BC (Trade & Invest British Columbia), the Government of Canada (Export Development Canada | Exportation et développement Canada, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), Trade Commissioner Service | Service des délégués commerciaux, National Research Council Canada / Conseil national de recherches Canada), and NGO support from the B.C. Centre for Innovation and Clean Energy (CICE). These resources offer more than just financial support – they operate at a strategic level, opening doors and building pathways to new markets. We are strong believers in these organizations and grateful for the support we have received over the years. https://lnkd.in/gCdEnBKw #GlobalExpansion #criticalminerals #TeamCanada #Innovation

Korea's Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy has identified lithium as the most important of all critical metals in securing economic security. Korea and Canada have agreed to cooperate on bolstering these supply chains, and next week Global Affairs Canada | Affaires mondiales Canada is coordinating a trade mission to Seoul in support on this. NORAM Electrolysis Systems Inc. will be attending, represented by our president & CEO, Jeremy Moulson. For those companies looking to produce or secure a reliable and sustainable supply of battery-grade lithium, our salt splitting technology dramatically reduces waste streams while producing an ultra-pure battery-grade product. We look forward to meeting with new and existing clients on this upcoming trade mission to explore environmentally responsible next steps in expanding Korea's EV capacity. #lithium #sustainable #energytransition #criticalminerals

NORAM Electrolysis Systems has recently completed an extensive validation program using NORSCAND® Electrolysis technology, producing 25m3 of high-purity battery-grade lithium hydroxide. This program was conducted in partnership with Lifthium Energy SA (Lifthium) to advance their planned 28,000 TPY Lithium Hydroxide Monohydrate (LHM) refinery. The validation program included 4,000 hours of NESI NS-01 test cell operation and 250 hours of continuous industrial scale NESI NORSCAND® A15 cell operation to produce battery-grade lithium hydroxide. All work was completed at NESI’s industrial scale electrolysis facility in Richmond, BC utilizing lithium chloride brine provided and pre-treated by Lifthium. The produced lithium hydroxide will be further processed by crystallization to produce tonnage quantities of battery-grade LHM. This validation program confirmed the longevity of critical electrolysis components, the expected performance of the electrolysis system, and provided confirmation of the quality and suitability of the lithium chloride feed brine for electrochemical conversion. NESI’s ability to perform validation programs helps owners and operators de-risk their projects by not only confirming process viability with actual feedstock, but also garnering accurate real-world operating data using the same industrial-scale equipment specified for commercial-scale plants (20,000 TPY LHM and higher). NESI’s industrial scale demonstration plant in Richmond BC has an annual production capacity of 500 TPY LHM. NESI is currently installing a second 500 TPY LHM state-of-the-art Lithium Electrolysis Validation Centre as part if it’s ongoing NRCan Critical Minerals Research Development and Demonstration program investment which will enable NESI and its partners to conduct similar large-scale electrolysis validation programs using brines from domestic and international sources. #criticalminerals #lithium #netzero #battery

NORAM Electrolysis Systems Inc. (NESI) has been selected for $947,500 in funding as part of the B.C. Centre for Innovation and Clean Energy (CICE)’s July 2024 Open Call for Innovation. CICE’s funding will support NESI in validating technology for the industrial-scale electrochemical regeneration of sodium sulfate effluent from lithium-ion battery manufacturing, enabling sustainability in lithium battery manufacturing through circular processing. “We’re on a mission to fast-track the commercialization of B.C.’s most promising climate solutions. A critical part of that is supporting innovators when they need it the most, so they ultimately deliver those impactful solutions to the world while creating economic benefits for B.C. and Canada,” Sarah Goodman, President and CEO of CICE. NESI’s innovation eliminates liquid effluent, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and enables a circular economy for battery metal refining and recycling worldwide. Using electrochemical salt-splitting, NESI converts the liquid effluent waste from traditional lithium refining, manufacturing, and recycling processes into valuable chemicals with the NORSCAND® Electrolyser. This process ensures production with minimal environmental footprint. “Sodium sulphate waste is a major challenge for existing and planned traditional processing of lithium hydroxide and manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries. NESI is working on solving this problem directly via membrane electrolysis of lithium salts to produce battery grade lithium hydroxide which avoids the production of sodium sulphate. However, another pathway to eliminate sodium sulphate as a waste is to convert it back into valuable chemicals for re-use in the main process, this can be accomplished by using electrolysis. NESI is grateful for the support from BC CICE which will help NESI take this technology from our pilot plant to a commercial product and provide a near-term solution to ensure sustainability in the global lithium supply chain,” Jeremy Moulson, President and CEO of NESI. https://lnkd.in/eNqcGX4T #lithium #circulareconomy #climate
