University College London and University of Illinois at Chicago researchers report a new, scalable method for making a material that can reversibly store magnesium ions at high-voltage. One factor limiting lithium-ion batteries is the anode. The study is published RSC journal Nanoscale. Linhua Hu, Ian D.

The economic benefits of recycling Li-ion batteries are clear, but at present, only a small percentage of them are recycled. The two main processes for recycling lithium-ion batteries are pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy. There are currently two main processes for recycling lithium-ion batteries.

A decade ago it became possible to get your electricity in the UK from a department store chain (though with the actual power supplied first by a Scottish utility and— as of 2018 —arranged and managed by Octopus Energy). Harmony Energy seems pretty pleased. Without it, you are not going to get there."

A new technology from Australia is certainly raising this prospect, offering a novel approach to stationary energy storage—whose packaging at least harkens back to the old, familiar car battery. Another general disadvantage is that it is heavier and larger than lithium-ion batteries.

—Venkat Srinivisan, Argonne Laboratories “The higher number of minerals that go into a battery is a good thing,” said Venkat Srinivisan, director of the Argonne Collaborative Center for Energy Storage Science (ACCESS). But it has never approached the energy density or life cycle of nickel-rich batteries, Srinivisan cautions.
