This column has been in operation for a little over a month now. It's an upgrade from what they were using in their initial pilot plant, but not by much. They would need A LOT of these columns in place for this operation to be commercially viable, which raises a lot of questions about whether their pilot plant results are scalable. SLI's focus remains on Magnolia (Southwest Arkansas), not so much on Phase 1A on the Lanxess site.

Whats the cost of the column? I don't see a problem with several columns. Was the original tech not as efficient, but cheaper to scale?
Also, sounds like you have an inside scoop.

The only place I remember seeing any specifics re Koch DLE vs Standard DLE is from Water Tower Research’s Initiation of Coverage here
“The sorption process at SLI’s Phase 1A Project and South West Arkansas project will use Koch’s LSS DLE extraction process. The technology is less water intensive and requires less reagents than LiSTR (lower cost), which will decrease the environmental impact and operating costs of the projects.”
Periodic reminder that the same guy (Craig Brown) invented them both.
