UP Catalyst CO2-derived carbon nanotube electrode material boosts cycle life in Na-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

Tests conducted by Titirici Group , a multidisciplinary research team based at Imperial College London, have found that a novel carbon nanotube electrode material derived from CO 2 —produced by Estonian nanotech company UP Catalyst ( earlier post )—enhances the cyclability of sodium-ion batteries. From every 3.7

The Stunning Carbon Footprint of Plate Glass

Cars That Think

The ingredients are sand (SiO 2 , about 73 percent of the charge ), sodium dioxide (Na 2 O, about 13 percent), lime (CaO, about 9 percent), and magnesium (4 percent). Float glassmaking is thus yet another industrial process (along with primary iron, ammonia, cement, and plastics) that cannot be easily decarbonized.
