Lithium-ion batteries use toxic, heavy metals that can impact the environment when they are extracted from the ground and are difficult to dispose of safely
Monash University researchers developed an ultra-high capacity Li-S battery that has better performance and less environmental impact than current lithium-ion products
Using aluminium battery technology could offer several advantages, including a high theoretical energy density, and the fact that there already exists an established industry for its manufacturi
Materials with a higher lithium ion storage capacity are either too heavy or the wrong shape to replace graphite, the electrode material currently used in today's batteries
