Researchers from UNSW Sydney (Australia) report in an open-access paper in the Journal of Power Sources on the use of hard carbons derived from automotive shredder residue (ASR) as a suitable anode electroactive material for sodium-ion batteries (NIBs). The situation is much worse for graphite. —Sarkar et al.

Scientists at the University of New South Wales (Australia) have developed a new bio-inspired method for carrying out chemical reduction—an industrial process used to produce fuels and chemicals. A future aim is to try to convert carbon dioxide into methanol much more efficiently. —Stephen Colbran. McSkimming, A.,
