Aqua Metals is building a more sustainable battery recycling ecosystem

Charged EVs

Several companies are developing chemical processes, but these are still at pilot scale, and Aqua’s execs see serious challenges in delivering the required product purity and dealing with waste streams. If we build out our infrastructure using that technology, it’s going to be a big step backwards, environmentally.

New mesoporous crystalline Si exhibits increased rate of H2 production; potential use in Li-ion batteries also

Green Car Congress

The nanosized crystalline primary particles and high surface areas enable an increased rate of photocatalytic hydrogen production from water and extended working life. Instead, Wang’s team uses a chemically based method that builds up the material rather than removing it. They then treat the material with a sodium potassium alloy.
