Watch Iggy Tan and the Lithium Universe (ASX: LU7) Team get a first glimpse of the cutting-edge Silver Extraction Technology being developed by the Macquarie University Team. This breakthrough complements LU7’s previously licensed Microwave Joule Heating Technology (MJHT), an energy-efficient process that delaminates solar panels without mechanical grinding or high temperature furnaces. MJHT preserves the integrity of both the glass and the silicon wafer, creating an ideal precursor for the Jet Electrochemical Silver Extraction (JESE) process.   

• LU7 has acquired global rights to Macquarie University’s Jet Electrochemical Silver Extraction (JESE) Technology 

• JESE uses an electrochemical low-voltage jet to selectively extract silver 

• Anodic oxidation of silver which dissolves into a dilute nitric acid electrolyte 

• Leaves aluminium and other impurities 

• High-purity silver metal recovered from the electrolyte via electrochemical deposition 

• Process preserves silicon wafers which minimises contamination for silicon recycling 

• High-purity silicon is critical for semiconductor manufacturing 

• Integrates with Microwave Delamination (MJHT) for full PV recycling solution 

• Which separates clean glass and silicon wafer from EVA
