Extraction of calcium and other valuable elements via sonic stimulation and sequential electrolysis

An assembly for extracting a target element, comprising:

• a dissolution tank defining an interior chamber having a first inlet, a second inlet, and a mixture outlet, wherein the dissolution tank is configured to receive one or more substrates through the first inlet and a solvent through the second inlet, wherein the one or more substrates comprise one or more target element, and wherein the dissolution tank is configured to combine the one or more substrates and the solvent into a mixture;
• optionally a sonic probe disposed within the interior chamber and configured to provide sonic energy to the mixture, a sonic plate in contact with the dissolution tank and configured to provide sonic energy to the mixture, or both the sonic probe and the sonic plate;
• and
• a sequential electrolytic precipitation reactor fluidically coupled to the mixture outlet of the dissolution tank, wherein the sequential electrolytic precipitation reactor comprises one or more precipitate outlets and one or more anolyte outlets configured to output one or more anolytes, each precipitate outlet configured to output a target element-rich precipitate.
