Lithium-air batteries are looked to by many as a very high-energy density next-generation energy storage solution for electric vehicles. One reaction that hasn’t been fully explained is how oxygen blows bubbles inside a lithium-air battery when it discharges. The paper is published in the journal Nature Nanotechnology.

Researchers from University of Rome Sapienza (Italy), Hanyang University (Korea) and the Argonne National Laboratory (US) have shown that the highly reactive lithium metal anode typically projected for use in Li-air batteries can be replaced with a lithiated silicon-carbon anode. Cycling current: 200 mA g ?1

One negative side effect of a lean burn engine, whether powered by gasoline or diesel fuel, is an increase in the amount of emissions released to the environment. In 2007, Vorbeck signed a worldwide license agreement with Princeton University for a patented method from the the Aksay Labs for manufacturing graphene at commercial scale.

The study was financially supported by BMW within the project ABILE (Air Batteries with Ionic Liquid Electrolytes). However, the low energy efficiency and severe safety concerns associated with the reactivity of the lithium metal anode remain still unsolved and prevent the practical application of the lithium-oxygen battery technology.

Also on the list of five is the arrival of advanced batteries, including air batteries (e.g., Lithium air), but targeted initially at small devices. Kyoto University and IBM Research - Tokyo have developed a system that can simulate a broad range of urban transport situations involving millions of vehicles.
