USGS Looks to Produced Water for Lithium

September 26, 2024--Written by Daniel Graeber for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey say they believe recovering the lithium often associated with the water left over from oil and gas production could be an important part of the energy transition. "Produced water" refers to water that comes out of the well during the oil and gas production process. This water exists naturally underground and often is rich in heavy metals, organic compounds and mineral salts. Companies featured: Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE:XOM) and SLB (NYSE:SLB)
