Aqua Metals is building a more sustainable battery recycling ecosystem

Charged EVs

Several companies are developing chemical processes, but these are still at pilot scale, and Aqua’s execs see serious challenges in delivering the required product purity and dealing with waste streams. Other batteries are coming from battery energy storage systems. That lowers our costs and lowers our waste streams.

ARPA-E awards $130M to 66 “OPEN 2012” transformational energy technology projects

Green Car Congress

ARPA-E’s first funding opportunity, “OPEN 2009,” was issued three years ago and was similarly an open call for transformational energy technology solutions. Conventional large-scale gasto-liquid reactors produce waste-heat, reducing the energy. Such natural gas contains energy. technology with advanced catalysts.

Such cities would become self-contained units, their buildings gleaning energy from the powerful weather systems sweeping across their roofs and feeding it down to homes below and vehicles in the streets. Electric cars in the garages would double as battery packs for when energy supplies are scarce. Cheers — Al Louard 11.
