Lithium carbonate is the most popular compound on account of the huge demand for the product for the production of ceramics and glasses, battery cathodes and solid-state carbon dioxide detectors.
Battery grade lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide are the key products in the context of the energy transition. Lithium hydroxide is better suited than lithium carbonate for the next generation of electric vehicle (EV) batteries. Batteries with nickel–manganese–cobalt NMC 811 cathodes and other nickel-rich batteries require lithium hydroxide.

Lithium is a critical material for the energy transition. Its chemical properties, as the lightest metal, are unique and sought after in the manufacture of batteries for mobile applications. Total worldwide lithium production in 2020 was 82 000 tonnes, or 436 000 tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) (USGS, 2021).
Lithium, a key component of modern battery technology, serves as the electrolyte's core, facilitating the smooth flow of ions between the anode and cathode. Its lightweight nature, combined with exceptional electrochemical characteristics, makes it indispensable for achieving high energy density (Nzereogu et al., 2022).
