Embodiments of the present disclosure may include a system and method for enhancing the extraction of lithium from a liquid resource. A volume of midstream-liquid resource may be received from a site like a pipeline, tank, or disposal site where the midstream-liquid resource may undergo a pre-treatment. A treatment regimen may be applied to remove hydrocarbons, organic matter, hydrogen sulfide, ions, and suspended solids along with reduction of excess pre-treatment chemicals and byproducts. Embodiments may further include critical-material extraction. The system for this process includes a pre-treatment station, a filtration station, and a direct-lithium-extraction (DLE) unit, with a reverse-osmosis station to concentrate the lithium product.
