Lilac Solutions

Lilac Solutions is an Oakland, California climate-technology company founded in 2016 that develops direct lithium extraction (DLE) technology built on proprietary ion exchange media. Its ion exchange beads and modular brine processing systems pull battery-grade lithium from high-grade, low-grade and complex brines without evaporation ponds, cutting water use and shrinking the land footprint and time-to-production of conventional lithium operations. Lilac operates mini-pilot, field-pilot and commercial deployments across the Great Salt Lake in Utah, Nevada, Argentina, Chile, Germany and Indonesia, and manufactures its ion exchange media on a dedicated production line in Nevada. The company is venture-backed with roughly $350M raised, employs about 200 people, and sells industrial hardware and process technology to lithium producers — it publishes no public developer platform, API, or machine-readable API contract.

Lilac Solutions is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Lithium, Direct Lithium Extraction, Ion Exchange, and Critical Minerals.
