Fig. 9

The databases in the technology database are modeled to represent all industrial structures that may be involved in the development process of the corresponding region. A- saline lake industry, B- organic chemical industry, C- inorganic chemical industry, D- metal smelting and processing industry, E- lithium deep processing industry, and F- comprehensive waste utilization industry. Nodes represent specific chemical industry technologies. Links are possible material exchanges between the nodes. The structure of each industry is shown in Supplementary Figs. 7–12.
