Rajkot: Gujarat is set to give the 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' mission a significant push in lithium—the ‘white gold' indispensable ...

A lithium-air battery based on lithium oxide (Li2O) formation can theoretically deliver an energy density that is comparable to that of gasoline. Lithium oxide formation involves a four-electron ...

Researchers develop a catalyst boosting lithium-air batteries with 0.52V, 960-hour stability, and 95.8% efficiency, advancing energy storage.

Lithium-air batteries work by dissolving positive lithium ions during operation, which move to a porous electrode. Air is moving through that electrode, binding the oxygen as lithium peroxide.

In past lithium-air designs, the lithium in a lithium metal anode moves through a liquid electrolyte to combine with oxygen during the discharge, yielding lithium peroxide (Li 2 O 2) or superoxide ...

Research on the production of hydrogen peroxide using carbon materials recovered from spent lithium-ion batteries, previously financed by a SONATA grant from the Polish National Science Centre ...

But in many cases, intermediates in this reaction are the primary chemicals formed—either lithium superoxide (LiO 2) or lithium peroxide (Li 2 O 2). This is where the Mo 3 P catalyst seems to help.

The field of lithium-oxygen battery research is advancing rapidly as scientists explore avenues to capitalise on the ultra-high theoretical energy density offered by this technology.

In past lithium-air designs, the lithium in a lithium metal anode moves through a liquid electrolyte to combine with oxygen during the discharge, yielding lithium peroxide (Li 2 O 2) or superoxide ...
