Monash University spinout ElectraLith has been named in Forbes Asia 100 To Watch 2025

ElectraLith was spun out of Monash Chemical and Biological Engineering based on research from Professor Huanting Wang, Sir John Monash Distinguished Professor and Australian Research Council (ARC) Laureate Fellow, along with his research team.

Now based in the Monash Innovation Labs, ElectraLith’s proprietary Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE-R) offers a more sustainable and efficient method for lithium production. Unlike traditional methods, DLE-R eliminates the need for water and chemicals, significantly reducing its environmental impact and cost.

DLE-R has produced battery grade lithium hydroxide from a range of sources, including from a highly contaminated and low concentration brine from the Paradox Basin in the United States, making it a game-changer for the industry.
