The Li / Support is the electrode made possible with the convection battery technology. Researchers at the University of Missouri led by Prof. Galen Suppes say that they have further developed and validated the “convection battery” or “convection cell” technology originally announced in 2011 and 2012 ( earlier post ).

The selected projects, led by universities, national laboratories, and the private sector aim to develop commercially scalable technologies that will enable greater domestic supplies of copper, nickel, lithium, cobalt, rare earth elements, and other critical elements. Feedstocks will include Li/Ni/Ca/Mg-rich igneous and sedimentary minerals.
