Advanced separation materials concepts such as ours could potentially turn this waste stream into a resource recovery opportunity. Instead of discarding the produced water, the team’s membrane filter could extract the resulting lithium and put it to use in other industries. Produced water from shale gas fields in Texas is rich in lithium.
