Tests conducted by Titirici Group , a multidisciplinary research team based at Imperial College London, have found that a novel carbon nanotube electrode material derived from CO 2 —produced by Estonian nanotech company UP Catalyst ( earlier post )—enhances the cyclability of sodium-ion batteries.
Bicarbonates are a component of many natural stones and are also commonly used as baking powder or sherbet (sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO 3 ). to sodium formate in 96% yield at 70 °C in water/THF without additional CO 2. In their study, they achieved hydrogenation of NaHCO 3.
The electrochemical cells created by Kanan and his team combat these inefficiencies with a modified design that produces a concentrated stream of ethylene gas and a sodium acetate solution 1,000 times more concentrated than product obtained with previous cells.
Several factors make southwest Wyoming ideal for testing this process, according to Surdam: Production of lithium from brines requires soda ash (sodium carbonate), and importation of soda ash to lithium production facilities often represents a large expense.
Researchers from George Washington University and Vanderbilt University have demonstrated the conversion of atmospheric CO 2 into carbon nanofibers (CNFs) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for use as high-performance anodes in both lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries. times above that of sodium-ion batteries with graphite electrodes.
The technique uses a solvent such as sodium or potassium hydroxides, converted by reacting with CO 2 to aqueous carbonates or bicarbonates. One possible technique for this might be the use of spray towers, Elrod noted.)

Advanced systems such as lithium-air, sodium-ion, as well as lithium-ion with new cathode chemistries are appropriate. Advanced Batteries for Transportation. The focus is on high-energy density and high-power density batteries suitable for transportation applications.

The electric buses achieve a range of more than 200 kilometers (124 miles) and include sodium-nickel batteries that provide power to the electric motor, resulting in a nominal torque of 1500N·m and 180 kW of power. The city of Bilbao, Spain is adding two new electric Irizar i2e buses. passenger-kilometer.
The energy storage is a sodium nickel chloride battery. 115 km (just over 71 miles) Consumption* 12 kWh/100 km CO2 emissions 0 g/km Could this herald a serious interest on the part of Mercedes to produce battery-powered vehicles? Coventry City Council will be using the electric Smart in its fleet. Same battery the first new Th!nk
The first mass-produced electric vehicle (EV) using a sodium-ion battery has been introduced by JAC Motors. While lithium-ion batteries are more developed and have a higher density than sodium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries are cheaper, dependable, and have better cold-weather performance. Why Sodium-ion Batteries?
A focus on tailpipe CO2 emissions has distracted away from the impact of car production, suggests Professor Frank Figge who co-authored the ‘Sustainable Value in Automobile Manufacturing’ study. Its sodium oxide value contributions show the worst level of resource efficiency in the entire study.
Automotive battery production currently releases around half a dozen tonnes of CO2. Also on the cards, and often touted as a solution, are sodium-ion batteries. The first, of course, involves the greening of battery components; specifically the mining and production of lithium. This is even more critical in hot countries like our own.
The electric car features three different battery options, two different Lithium-based (LI) systems – A123Systems and Enerdel as well as a Sodium-Nickel battery Zebra (Mes-Dea). There is significant cause vs. effect debate on CO2. It features ABS brakes, dual airbags, and is designed to meet all European and U.S.
Further, according to a report from the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS), gasoline and diesel ICE vehicle technologies fueled on a fossil/biofuel mix emit approximately 245–253 g CO2 eq./km Whereas, battery EVs fueled on average grid electricity emit 105–124 g CO2 eq./km, km over their lifetime.
