About LibertyStream Infrastructure
LibertyStream Infrastructure Partners operates mineral recovery systems that extract critical minerals from oilfield brine, transforming saltwater disposal operations into revenue-generating assets for energy producers. The company's Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) technology integrates with existing saltwater disposal wells to recover lithium, boron, magnesium and other battery-grade minerals from produced water streams.
The modular processing system achieves lithium recovery rates up to 98% within 30 minutes, producing battery-grade lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide suitable for energy storage applications. By utilizing legacy oil and gas infrastructure rather than conventional mining operations, the technology reduces capital requirements and land use while enabling domestic mineral production.
LibertyStream's approach addresses two industrial challenges: the disposal costs associated with oilfield brine and the supply constraints for battery minerals. The system's integration with active disposal wells allows energy operators to monetize waste streams while contributing to U.S. mineral supply chains without the environmental footprint of traditional hard-rock mining or evaporation pond methods.
