Sector Application
Diaphragm Valve for Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE)
Strong evidence
What LibertyCES's vendor documentation shows
Asahi specifically recommends the Type-14 for DLE valve automation — chosen for abrasive-slurry and corrosive-brine tolerance without clogging or corroding, because the top-entry design means only body and diaphragm touch the brine. Clearest vendor-stated valve-type recommendation for DLE in the corpus.
