In 1911, Dutch physicist Heike Kamerlingh Onnes plunged a mercury wire into liquid helium and noticed that the wire’s electrical resistance vanished. But the materials could show up sooner in a wide array of practical applications, including wind power, energy storage, and nuclear magnetic-resonance machines.

In 2020, EPA projects a 20% to 23% reduction of SO 2 ; 22% to 24% reduction of NO x ; and a 15% to 18% reduction of mercury, under the proposed Option 1 illustrative scenarios. The EPA projects that the annual incremental compliance cost of the proposed Option 1 ranges from $5.4 The estimated cost of Option 2 is between $4.2

Spent lithium-ion batteries contain hazardous materials like lead, cadmium, and mercury, which, if not properly disposed of, can leach into soil and water, causing significant ecological harm. Recycling can help lower the cost of battery production. Creating a one-size-fits-all recycling approach is challenging due to these variations.
