Oil & Gas
DLE engineered to operator standards.
Critical minerals from resources and infrastructure you already own.
Continental brines move through wells, gathering systems, and operating expertise that conventional lithium projects have to build from scratch. That existing footprint lowers the capital required to enter the lithium market and compresses the path from feasibility to first product. denaLi™ is designed to integrate with the infrastructure operators already run.
Engineered for complex continental brines.
Brines outside the salar belt run hot and carry mixed impurity loads that defeat processing systems built for clean evaporation chemistry. Summit’s multi-column denaLi™ system was designed for that complexity from day one, and our regional testing hubs in Santiago and Denver prove the design against your specific brine before capital is committed.
The denaLi advantage:
$1-2K
Reduction per tonne LCE
8X
Lower water intensity
95%+
Validated uptime
A faster route from brine to lithium product.
Rapid resource assessment
Send brine samples to ALPACA in Santiago and receive commercial-grade design data in months, not years. The dataset is built to support the financing, permitting, and offtake decisions every project requires.
Built for global deployment
Engineering, project execution, and supply chain models tuned to the permitting cycles, financing structures, and offtake expectations of the jurisdictions where you operate.
Allied supply chain
Proprietary eLivate™ sorbent manufactured in the United States and key components sourced from trusted suppliers.
Modular by design
Standardized plant architecture replicates across geographies. The same blueprint that ramps your first 5,000 TPY module supports the next ten at any project site that has the brine.
How we’re different
The clear leader in DLE.
Summit has solved the challenges of sorbent DLE and innovated well beyond competitors.
