Researchers use chemical looping process to produce hydrogen from hydrogen sulfide gas

Green Car Congress

The process uses relatively little energy and a relatively cheap material—iron sulfide with a trace amount of molybdenum as an additive. Herein, we demonstrate a sulfur looping scheme in a one-reactor system using a low-cost and environmentally safe iron-based sulfur carrier.

Efficient recovery of lithium from spent LiFePO4 batteries via air oxidation–water leaching at room temperature

Green Car Congress

The use of LFP batteries in EVs is increasing rapidly, especially in China, due to low-cost, safety, excellent thermal stability and superior cycling performance. As the most cheap and green oxidant, air may be suitable as the oxidant to selectively extract lithium from the LFP cathode material in the water leaching process.

STFC Rutherford Appleton Lab spin-off seeking to develop and commercialize a novel solid-state hydrogen storage technology; transportation applications

Green Car Congress

The material could allow hydrogen to be stored in a cheap and practical way for transport applications, the company says. Many are also difficult to handle in that they degrade rapidly in air. With a fluidized hydride, it is possible to quickly fill or remove the material from the vehicle so that it can be recycled or rehydrided elsewhere.

EADS Innovation Works presents design prototype of drone produced by additive layer manufacturing

Green Car Congress

The four students from the University of Leeds’ Faculty of Engineering developed an initial concept of the UAV, created the design and performed an aerodynamic analysis under the supervision of EADS expert Martin Muir. ALM technology makes it possible to produce the complex contoured shape at a low cost.

A cheap Toyota EV? Not right now, the company says

Baua Electric

Toyota has no current plans to launch a cheap EV despite demand building. Toyota says no small, cheap EV is in the works Although many automakers, including VW, Stellantis, and Kia, have revealed plans to launch low-cost EVs under $30,000 (£25,000), Toyota says not so fast. The post A cheap Toyota EV?
