The partnership will begin with a project in the battery anode space with the development of a novel process for the production of hard carbon from bio-waste. Using readily available, sustainable bio-waste material will provide Sparc with a strong environmental value proposition when compared with conventional sources of hard carbon.

Pyrometallurgy, which traditionally doesn’t recover carbon or lithium, seems likely to be phased out. 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. They need to contain them.

Lithium-intercalation compounds and sodium-intercalation compounds are used for anode and cathode, respectively. During charging (or discharging), the storage (or release) of Li + takes place at anode, and the release (or storage) of Na + occurs at cathode. Second, this electrochemical method is green and energy efficient.

Not least of those considerations is energy storage [and generation].” Challenges: Sustainability and industry collaboration This efficient energy harvester combines piezoelectric composites with carbon fiber–reinforced polymer and epoxy resin, a unique combination that was able to store electricity even after 100,000 uses.

By some estimates, as much as 15,000 metric tons per year of lithium carbonate could be recovered from a single geothermal power plant in the Salton Sea area of California—one of the most mineral-rich brine sources in the United States. Concentrated brines left over from the operation are then pumped back into the ground.
