UC Riverside (UCR) engineers have developed a way to recycle PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic waste, such as soda or water bottles, into a nanomaterial useful for energy storage. Although they don’t store as much energy as lithium-ion batteries, these supercapacitors can charge much faster—a good option for many applications.

Stealth-mode battery start-up 24M has introduced its new semi-solid lithium-ion cell. Together, our inventions achieve what lithium-ion has yet to do—meet the ultra-low cost targets of the grid and transportation industries. The lithium-ion battery is a brilliant, enabling technology, but its economics are flawed.

With prior ARPA-E support, Sila developed a unique drop-in replacement silicon (Si) dominant composite anode powder that boosts automotive lithium-ion battery (LIB) energy density by 20%+ and enables fast charging. This project will demonstrate that the IM PE can be a low-cost component in safe, solid-state Li-ion batteries.

The result is a more affordable battery from a faster, less wasteful process that uses less toxic material. Using the toxic chemical increases costs, heightens health and environmental concerns, and wastes large amounts of water to reduce acidity. NMA half cells show 200 mAh g −1 capacity with 96% capacity over 100 cycles.
