The new work, published in Science , shows that four-electron conversion for lithium-oxygen electrochemistry is highly reversible. The Waterloo team is the first to achieve four-electron conversion, which doubles the electron storage of lithium-oxygen, also known as lithium-air, batteries. —Linda Nazar. Resources.

Aluminum production accounts for roughly 1% of global greenhouse-gas emissions each year, via a two~step process: refining of aluminum oxide powder from bauxite ore and conversion to aluminum in smelters. Earlier post.). However, nearly 20% of the emissions are from the production and degradation of the carbon anodes used during smelting.
