The economic benefits of recycling Li-ion batteries are clear, but at present, only a small percentage of them are recycled. In contrast, lead-acid batteries have a 99% recycling rate in the US. The two main processes for recycling lithium-ion batteries are pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy.

There are three main forms of graphite: spherical graphite is used in non-EV battery applications, whereas EV batteries use a blend of coated spherical graphite and synthetic graphite. The company manufactures 10,000 metric tonnes per year of purified spherical graphite for EV battery anodes. Graphite is a pure form of carbon.

First, SciAps has developed the LIBS (laser) Z-901 Lithium analyzer, purpose-built for measuring Li in rocks and brines, and the Z-902 Lithium analyzer with an extended spectrometer range for those users who need to additionally measure boron (B), magnesium (Mg), sodium (Na) and perhaps other metals in brines. Don’t need REE performance?

This episode is brought to you by IEEE Xplore , the digital library with over 6 million technical documents and free search. It’s got sodium, potassium, calcium, etc., It doesn’t really like sodium so much. I won’t get into too much between Volta , the guy who invented the battery, and Galvani. This is like sieve water.
