Job Summary

Project Overview

Imerys is launching a lithium mining project, the EMILI Project, at its Beauvoir site in Echassières, France. The project aims to produce 34,000 tons of lithium hydroxide per year for at least 25 years, with production starting in 2028.

The project schedule includes completing the preliminary mine design by 2023, validating and testing the overall process at the lab scale, and characterizing the deposit in detail by 2024. The construction of the industrial/demo pilot plant will commence in 2024, with commissioning scheduled for 2025. The mine and commercial plant opening is targeted for 2028.

The run of mine material will be concentrated to separate lithium-bearing minerals from other by-products or waste material. The concentrate will be transported to the refining site, where it will be calcined with sulphate salts to convert insoluble lithium species to soluble ones. The calcined material will be leached, and the pregnant leach solution purified through several steps. Lithium carbonate will be precipitated using sodium carbonate and converted to lithium hydroxide using quicklime. The lithium hydroxide will be crystallized to obtain the final product in powder form.

Job Responsibilities

  • Lead and oversee the design, development, and implementation of mechanical systems and processes within the converter facility.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure efficient and reliable operation of the converter.
  • Provide guidance and supervision to engineering and design companies engaged to develop the various stages of the EMILI project for converter mechanical engineering.

Requirements

  • BSc, BEng, or B.Tech in Engineering or National Diploma with a minimum of 10 years' experience.
  • Minimum of 10 years' mechanical design experience in the converter and minerals processing area.
  • Proven experience as a Mechanical Engineer in the converter industry or a similar field.

Skills and Knowledge

  • Strong knowledge of mechanical systems design, thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid dynamics.
  • Well-developed computer skills and knowledge of word, databases, spreadsheets, and discipline-related application software.
  • Site experience in construction and commissioning.
  • Materials handling experience.
  • Hydrometallurgical package experience.
