We have developed expertise in both organic and inorganic electrochemical synthesis. We support development work in:
NORAM Electrolysis Systems
BC Research hosts the NORAM Electrolysis Systems pilot plant – a versatile facility that:
Is uniquely suited to the conversion of lithium brine streams derived from salar, spodumene and thermal brine sources into high-purity lithium hydroxide for the Lithium Ion Battery (LIB) industry.
Is adaptable to salt-splitting of by-product waste chemicals such as sodium sulphate Na2SO4 for recycling into valuable chemicals for re-use.
Facilitates the development of pre-treatment protocols ahead of electrochemical processing to optimize cell performance and durability.
Allows extended pilot plant campaigns on disparate brine chemistries.
Offers a platform for novel Anionic (AEM) and Cationic (CEM) Exchange Membrane development and scale-up.
Can be configured for two-compartment or multi-compartment electrochemical reactions.
