Researchers in Korea propose graphene/Ni foam as Li metal storage medium for advanced batteries

Green Car Congress

Researchers in Korea have developed three-dimensional monolithic corrugated graphene on nickel foam electrode as a Li metal storage framework in carbonate electrolytes. Therefore, hybrid engineering to prevent dendritic Li growth and increase the coulombic efficiency in highly reactive electrolytes is essential. 2018.12.075.

Hybrid biomass flow battery stores electricity and produces valuable chemicals at the same time

Green Car Congress

Rechargeable batteries store electricity in their electrode materials, while redox flow batteries use chemicals stored in tanks attached to the electrodes. Researchers have now developed a battery system based on a hybrid cell, which not only stores and provides electricity but also produces valuable chemicals in a flow system.
