While EV pioneer Tesla has played a crucial role in popularizing the use of lithium-ion batteries, there is an entire ecosystem of lithium mining firms and battery manufacturers that are contributing a lot to this petrol-to-electric transformation. At the highest level, the ecosystem begins with ...
Step 1: Lithium-Ion Battery 101 12 More Images Like I said, rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are everywhere! This is what makes getting these batteries cheap because people tend to toss old electronics that get broken or just stop working, but leave the battery inside. I usually get mine...
Molecularly-selective metal separations are key to sustainable recycling of Li-ion battery electrodes. However, metals with close reduction potentials present a fundamental challenge for selective electrodeposition, especially for critical elements such as cobalt and nickel. Here, we demonstrate the synergist...
Keywords: lithium-ion batteries; electric vehicles; battery management system; electric power 1. Introduction Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are one of the most promising technologies due to advantages like high efficiency, lower volume, small weight, temperature sensitivity, and maintenance [1–3]. ...
