The interest in recycling spent lithium-ion batteries (Li-ionB) has surged due to the rising demand for valuable metals (e.g., Co, Ni, Li and Mn) concerns about environmental repercussions emanating from conventional battery waste disposal. Conventional precipitation-based hydrometallurgy processes utilise Na-based or metal-based precipitants. Na, precipitants, is present high concentrations process effluent since they are not recovered during process. Na-rich cannot be discarded it doesn't...
The interest in recycling spent lithium-ion batteries (Li-ionB) has surged due to the rising demand for valuable metals (e.g., Co, Ni, Li and Mn) concerns about environmental repercussions emanating from conventional battery waste disposal. This research is centred on recovery of Ni Co synthetic Mn sulphate solutions mimicking NMC 532 ratio elements using a hydro-electrometallurgy process route that integrates hydrometallurgy potentiostatic electrometallurgy techniques. quasi-model done...
Abstract Nickel hydroxide, Ni(OH) 2 electrode material has been used as a positive in commercial alkaline secondary batteries for more than 100 years. This is because good high rate discharge ability performance, wide operation and storage temperature range relatively low. However, the exhibits poor performance which results from (i) competitive reactions of oxidation active evolution oxygen. (ii) The reduced charge acceptance suspected to be related long distance between particles nearest...

In the search of sustainable energy solutions, proton exchange membrane water electrolyzers (PEMWEs) have emerged as a promising alternative for clean hydrogen production. This study focuses on synthesis and characterization Ruthenium (Ru)-modified iridium oxide (IrO2) catalysts. The anode is principal reason high overpotential PEMWEs it also greatly increases cost electrolyzers. IrO2 highly stable corrosion-resistant, particularly in acidic environments, making durable catalyst oxygen...
