Disposing of the toxic water is getting to be problematic, costly, and is causing some pretty big earthquakes.

Maybe they should get some advice from South American countries on how they get rid of the water from mining lithium. Good idea?

They let the water evaporate off from huge flat pits leaving behind the lithium?  If oil companies had a flat hot desert that they could build pits to let water evaporate of leaving behind just the toxins it might just work in texas fracking.

Lol! The byproducts don't magically disappear do they?

By product of a lithium brine is lithium correct?

 

what is it going to take to rid say somebody like chevron who has permits to dispose of toxic water into deep wells to a tune of 700,000 plus barrels a day of waste water from oil extraction is no longer allowed due to the earth quakes it causes?
