Mangrove is a lithium refining platform that utilizes Clear-LiTM electrochemical technology to convert lithium extracted from a wide variety of feedstocks to battery-grade lithium hydroxide and lithium carbonate more efficiently, economically and sustainably than ever before.
Mangrove is a lithium refining platform that operates in the space between lithium extraction and cathode manufacturing. The modular system can co-locate with lithium extractors, cathode manufacturers or battery recyclers, helping to optimize efficiencies in the lithium supply chain.
Mangrove’s Clear-Li electrochemical technology is a modular skid-mounted system that can easily co-locate with lithium extractors, battery manufacturers or battery recyclers. This decentralizes lithium refining outside of China and mitigates geopolitical risks, logistic issues and removes bottlenecks in the lithium supply chain.
As the world transitions to renewable and electric energy to power their lives, Mangrove’s Clear-Li technology is in step with that philosophy. Using electricity in place of fossil fuels and chemicals, Mangrove refines lithium into a battery-grade product more sustainably and with a smaller carbon footprint than incumbent processes.
By decreasing lithium extractor’s OPEX/CAPEX, and by being able to work with junior producers to refine lithium from a wide variety of feedstocks into a battery-grade product, partnering with Mangrove makes lithium extraction operations more fundable. This consequently increases availability of lithium for the battery manufacturing market.
Lithium is a finite resource that is extracted from the earth. This means being able to efficiently harness lithium from recycled batteries will be continuously more important as the global transition to renewable energy grows. Mangrove is able to refine a high purity battery-grade lithium efficiently and cost effectively from recycled batteries, and is able to complete a circular economy between battery manufacturing and recycling.
The growing market for electric vehicles means less transportation emissions, but their batteries contribute their own set of GHG emissions. Saad Dara, Clean50 honouree and CEO of Mangrove Lithium, explains how sustainable lithium refining practices and technologies can be utilized to lower the footprint of EV batteries.
TOKYO -- A Canadian startup proposing a new method for refining lithium says it sees growing interest from Japanese companies hoping to lessen their dependence on China as source of the critical mineral for batteries in electric vehicles.
We are pleased to announce that Saad Dara, CEO and Co-Founder of Mangrove Lithium, has been awarded as one of the 2024 Delta Management Group Clean50 honourees.
As demand for electric vehicles and utility-scale energy storage batteries skyrockets, the world will need to rapidly expand the lithium supply chain. Canada is positioned to excel in the production and refining of critical minerals as it holds the 6th largest lithium reserves in the world.

Saad Dara talks about Mangrove's journey from water treatment to lithium refining technology on the Don't Waste Water podcast
Mangrove Lithium is proud to be recipients to this year’s BC Centre for Innovation and Clean Energy (CICE) Open Call for Innovation. The support from CICE has been instrumental in our progress of developing an electrode manufacturing process in B.C. for our Clear-Li electrochemical technology.
The new proposal takes advantage of Chile’s rich lithium reserves to help meet global lithium demand, through potential partnerships between the government and private sector, while adhering to sustainability standards.
Batteries News Op-ed: Decentralizing Lithium Refining Key to Scaling Battery Manufacturing and Recycling
Bill Derasmo and Dr. Saad Dara discuss Mangrove Lithium’s novel electrochemical refining process for producing battery-grade lithium, and how they turn overseas refining into a thing of the past.
Mangrove Lithium has announced the appointment of David St. Angelo as its first Chief Technology Officer. As CTO, David will oversee and manage Mangrove’s technology development and commercialization.
Traditional refining uses lots of chemicals and comes with a sizable carbon footprint. An electrochemical lithium refining process; however, has significantly reduced input chemical and energy needs.
One battery-grade lithium compound, however, stands out as a precursor material for cathodes. Lithium hydroxide will enable us to meet our clean energy mandates faster if its current supply chain challenges can be resolved and its production is prioritized.
Tune in to Battery Insiders at 25:54 to hear the discussion about how Mangrove's electrochemical process takes brine straight to battery-grade lithium, eliminating the need for that second plant and saving lithium and battery producers millions.
Mangrove’s CEO and founder, Saad Dara, was recently a guest on the CleanTechnica Cleantech Talk podcast to chat about all things lithium.
Mangrove was one of 15,753 nominations for the Cleantech 100 list, making our selection an assuring validation of our technology and mission.
