Aqua Metals has pioneered a new electro-hydrometallurgy process that uses renewable electricity and recycles the chemicals used. Pyrometallurgy, which traditionally doesn’t recover carbon or lithium, seems likely to be phased out. The whole batteries go in, so the plastics get burned, the carbon gets burned, there’s a lot of emissions.

Using low-carbon fuels or biofuels as the source of heat energy to process lithium and manufacture li-ion batteries would cut carbon emissions by half as per world banks study. [4] tons of GHG each year assuming 50% energy generation from renewable energy [3,6]. tons of GHG (greenhouse gasses) per electric car [3].

Substantial progress in battery technology is essential if we are to succeed in an energy transition towards a more carbon-neutral society. We need new storage technologies if more renewables are to be used on the electrical grid; similarly, the electrification of transport requires much cheaper and longer-lasting batteries.

In comparison, lithium-ion batteries cost around $138/kWh. Then there are the new battery chemistries that are not lithium based—for instance, sodium-ion and graphene-based batteries. If some portion of that were nanoelectrofuel that could be continually recharged, it might be possible to reduce the ship’s carbon footprint.

Where as a petrol scooter emits a combination of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and particulate matter. Studies from independent scientists tell us that even if 100% of Electricity is generated from coal, EV’s emit 50% lesser carbon gases due to the efficiency of the electric motor. It does not have a tail pipe.
