For the proof-of-concept, the cells were manufactured to be larger than necessary to avoid unnecessary costs and lengthy manufacturing processes at this early stage. Sodium-ion intercalation batteries—i.e., Thus, insertion/deinsertion of sodium ions in a host material is much more difficult than that of lithium ions.

The circulating seawater in the open-cathode system results in a continuous supply of sodium ions, endowing the system with superior cycling stability that allows the application of various alternative anodes to sodium metal by compensating for irreversible charge losses. an alloying material), in full sodium-ion configuration.

A team from Stanford University and Ruhr-Universität Bochum have demonstrated the novel concept of a “desalination battery” that uses an electrical energy input to extract sodium and chloride ions from seawater and to generate fresh water. The electrodes are then recharged in this solution, releasing ions and creating brine.

Example of a lithium-water rechargeable battery. Researchers at the University of Texas, including Dr. John Goodenough, are proposing a strategy for high-capacity next-generation alkali (lithium or sodium)-ion batteries using water-soluble redox couples as the cathode. The present sodium-sulfur battery operates above 300 °C.

Researchers at the University of Tokyo have developed a battery based on the concept of a combination of a perovskite-type cathode and a low-electrode-potential anode that can achieve high energy densities through the use of organic rather than aqueous electrolytes. Earlier post.). —Hibino et al. under milder conditions than usual.

Researchers at Ohio State University (OSU) have demonstrated the concept of a potassium-air (K?O V), which contributes to the low rechargeability. Potassium, an alkali metal similar to lithium (and sodium) can be used in a rechargeable battery. Credit: ACS, Ren and Wu. Click to enlarge. O 2 batteries.In —Ren and Wu.

The winning concepts were: A molten air battery that uses a molten salt electrolyte at elevated temperature from Professor Stuart Licht at George Washington University. A novel rechargeable zinc battery from the research group of Professors Paul Wright and James Evans from the University of California, Berkeley.
