Abstract
An energy efficient and environmentally benign lithium recovery process is described. The process comprises extracting lithium from the brine source using a ion withdrawal process to form a lithium extract; providing electricity for the extracting using an energy source; and recovering thermal energy from the energy source for use in the extracting.
