Redefining waste,

one drop at a time.

Clean Water and Valuable Minerals

espiku provides cost-effective, reliable solutions for enabling clean water and minerals extraction from oil & gas produced water, high-salinity brines, and other unconventional sources. Our fouling-free technologies leverage low-pressure, low-temperature thermal cycles to eliminate the need for membranes or packed beds.

Turn Waste into Profit

Our solutions transform byproducts into valuable, marketable resources including freshwater and critical minerals, fostering a sustainable water-energy nexus and the transition to a clean energy economy.

Two Products.

Infinite Solutions.

Produced Water Management

Espiku provides high-volume disposal reduction with a seamless, on-site Treatment-as-a-Service model. Our Scepter technology handles any salinity without the scaling or fouling that plagues conventional systems.

Our proven and patented water treatment technology extracts clean water from produced water and other industrial wastewater, agnostic of the feedwater composition and its contaminants. Our partners save money and time by reducing the costs and logistics of water acquisition, transportation, or disposal.

  • We build, own, and operate the infrastructure, charging a simple, metered service fee that is significantly lower than traditional trucking and Saltwater Disposal (SWD) costs.

  • Our system is hands- and fouling-free, transforming liability-heavy wastewater into high-purity, irrigation-quality water.

  • The system’s ability to fully suppress and mitigate scaling without membranes or packed beds in real time ensures continuous operation with little maintenance.

Critical Mineral Valoratization

Unlocking Value from brine or industrial produced water. Our patented technology enables a domestic and secure supply of critical minerals. The higher the salinity, the greater our competitive advantage.

Espiku turns produced water into a strategic mineral feedstock. By concentrating dilute stocks 2–3X, we enable our partners to execute cost-competitive Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) and other mineral recoveries. We help our customers save time and money by turning an environmental liability into a secure mineral supply chain.

  • Our process reduces the capital expenditure for Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE), making domestic lithium production competitive with the world’s premier resources.

  • Integrated with existing DLE technology, we enable critical minerals recovery and contaminant rejection.

  • We provide a viable pathway to meet domestic lithium demand using minerals already brought to the surface by existing energy operations.
