Life cycle assessment for the production of a sodium-ion battery with layered transition metal oxide and hard carbon.
Abstract The development of new batteries has historically been achieved through discovery and cycles based on the intuition researcher, followed by experimental trial error—often helped along serendipitous breakthroughs. Meanwhile, it is evident that strategies are needed to master ever‐growing complexity in battery systems, fast‐track transfer findings from laboratory into commercially viable products. This review gives an overview over future needs current state‐of‐the art five research...
Abstract On the basis of a review existing life cycle assessment studies on lithium‐ion battery recycling, we parametrize process models state‐of‐the‐art pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical enabling their application to different cell chemistries, including beyond‐lithium batteries such as sodium‐ion batteries. These processes are used benchmark for evaluating an advanced recycling process, which is modeled primary data obtained from company, quantifying potential reduction...
Batteries are one of the key technologies for flexible energy systems in future. In particular, vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFB) well suited to provide modular and scalable storage due favorable characteristics such as long cycle life, easy scale-up, good recyclability. However, there is a lack detailed original studies on potential environmental impacts their production operation. The present study fills this gap by providing comprehensive life assessment representative VRFB....
Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are a recent development being promoted repeatedly as an economically promising alternative to lithium-ion (LIBs). However, only one detailed study about material costs has yet been published for this battery type. This paper presents the first economic assessment of 18,650-type SIB cells with layered oxide cathode and hard carbon anode, based on existing datasheets pre-commercial cells. The results compared those competing LIB cells, that is,...
Abstract This roadmap presents the transformational research ideas proposed by “BATTERY 2030+,” European large‐scale initiative for future battery chemistries. A “chemistry‐neutral” to advance research, particularly at low technology readiness levels, is outlined, with a time horizon of more than ten years. The centered around six themes: 1) accelerated materials discovery platform, 2) interface genome, integration smart functionalities such as 3) sensing and 4) self‐healing processes....
Abstract Sodium‐ion batteries (SIB) are considered as a promising alternative to overcome existing sustainability challenges related Lithium‐ion (LIB), such the use of critical and expensive materials with high environmental impacts. In contrast established LIBs, SIBs an emerging technology in early stage development where challenge is identify most sustainable cathode active (CAM) for further research potential commercialization. Thus, comprehensive flexible CAM screening method developed,...
Abstract Batteries are considered as one of the key flexibility options for future energy storage systems. However, their production is cost‐ and greenhouse‐gas intensive efforts made to decrease price carbon footprint. We combine life‐cycle assessment, Monte‐Carlo simulation, size optimization determine costs emissions different battery technologies in stationary applications, which then compared by calculating a single score. Cycle life determined factor cost CO 2 emissions. This not only...
Electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) have been put aside too long because much efforts done on electrode materials.
Patent documents provide knowledge about which countries are investing in certain technologies and make it possible to identify potential innovation trends. The aim of this article is analyze trends patenting that might result innovations for three energy technologies: thermochemical conversion biomass (Bioenergy), lithium-ion battery storage, hydrogen production by alkaline water electrolysis. Based on different patent indicators, the most active compared insights into global market...
Assessing different sodium-ion against current lithium-ion battery cells shows large difference between cell chemistries and a good environmental performance for manganese Prussian blue-based cathodes under full life cycle perspective.
Abstract Background The widespread use of sustainable energy technologies is a key element in the transformation system from fossil-based to zero-carbon. In line with this, technology acceptance great importance as resistance public can slow down or hinder construction projects. current study assesses social three relevant for German transition: stationary battery storage, biofuel production plants and hydrogen fuel station. Methods An online survey was conducted examine public’s general...
Battery storage systems have become an important pillar in the transformation of energy and transportation sector over last decades. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are dominating technology this process making them a constant subject analysis regarding their sustainability. To assess environmental performance, several Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) LIBs been performed years. Yet, amount available primary data on production remains low, leading to recurrent reliance few disclosed datasets, mostly...
