Sevier Playa Potash
In Phase 1, the Sevier Playa Potash project, located in the United States, aims to transform approximately 950,000 short tons per annum of salts produced from solar evaporation of Playa Brine, into 215,000 short tons per annum of Sulphate of Potash (SOP), 200,000 short tons per annum of magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) brine, and 100,000 short tons per annum of bischofite flakes. The project is set to meet global potash and magnesium chloride demand while utilizing sustainable resource extraction methods.

Scope
Sedgman completed multiple studies and engineering for the SOP production in this project including a feasibility study, a rescoping study, bridge engineering and Front End Engineering Development (FEED). Various evaluations and studies were completed for other products, including a feasibility study for bischofite production, and economic evaluation of end brine lithium content for the potential production of lithium carbonate.
Outcome
The comprehensive studies have provided a solid foundation for the project’s progression, with Sedgman's contributions ensuring that the project moves forward efficiently and economically.
