Hygroscopic salts pull lithium from mining waste using only moisture from air

TL;DR


Summary:
- This article discusses a new technology that uses hygroscopic salts to extract moisture from the air and convert it into lithium, which is a key component in batteries.
- The process involves using these salts to absorb water vapor from the atmosphere, then extracting the lithium from the resulting solution.
- This technology could potentially provide a sustainable source of lithium, which is in high demand for the production of batteries used in electric vehicles and other electronic devices.
