Lithium Extraction Just Got a Major Glow-Up

Did you know extracting lithium (the stuff powering your phone and EV) is usually super wasteful and polluting? Penn State engineers just cracked a new method that pulls out over 99% of lithium from rocks in minutes—using way less energy and water, and ditching harsh chemicals. This could mean cheaper, greener batteries for everything we use! The process is patent-pending, but if it scales, our tech and the planet both win big. #TechInnovation #GreenEnergy #Lithium #Science
