Rock Tech’s Guben Converter Lithium Production Carbon Footprint is 30 Percent Lower than the International Energy Agency’s Reported Average

Fraunhofer UMSICHT conducted a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for battery-grade lithium hydroxide monohydrate (LHM) from the Guben Converter. The carbon footprint is calculated to be 10.5 kgCO2-eq./kg LHM. The footprint could be reduced to 5.4 kgCO2–eq./kg LHM through careful commercial…
