Researchers at the University of Virginia (UVA) have devised a process for converting retired Li-ion battery anodes to graphene and graphene oxide (GO). So far, only 1% of end-of-life Li-ion batteries have been recycled. Here, graphite powders from end-of-life Li-ion battery anodes were used to fabricate graphene.

converting existing internal combustion engine (ICE) cars into electric vehicles using conversion kits. The Appeal of Conversion Kits Conversion kits offer a promising solution for individuals who wish to contribute to environmental conservation without breaking the bank (Now you don’t have to break the bank to buy an EV).
