Long-term discharge curve of the newly developed lithium-air cell. Researchers at Japan’s AIST (National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology) are developing a lithium-air cell with a new structure (a set of three different electrolytes) to avoid degradation and performance problems of conventional lithium-air cells.
Schematic illustration of the aqueous rechargeablelithium battery (ARLB) using the coated lithium metal as anode, LiMn 2 O 4 as cathode and 0.5 Here we introduce a coating layer on lithium metal. V, much higher than the theoretic stable window of water, 1.229 V. mol l -1 Li 2 SO 4 aqueous solution as electrolyte.
General schematic of a lithium-air battery. The team plans to explore rechargeableLithium-Air systems, which could offer 10 times the energy capacity of lithium-ion systems. Lithium-ion rechargeable (secondary) batteries are based on a pair of intercalation electrodes. not rechargeable.
Schematic representation and operating principles of the lithium–water electrochemical cell used for hydrogen generation: (1) external circuit and (2) inside of lithium–water electrochemical cell. the high-school chemistry demonstration of the violent reaction between sodium and water.).

PolyPlus Battery Company a privately-held company focused on the development of the first rechargeable Li metal battery with a ionically conductive glass separator, has entered into the first stage of a joint development agreement with SK Innovation Co. Korea’s first and largest energy and chemical company.
They suggested that the resulting mechanistic understanding of the chemistry of CO 2 in a Li–air cell and the interplay of CO 2 with electrolyte solvation will provide an important guideline for developing Li–air batteries. Lithium-air batteries, with a theoretical gravimetric energy density of ?3500 air battery.
MIT researchers have found a new family of highly active catalyst materials that provides the best performance yet in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in electrochemical water-splitting—a key requirement for energy storage and delivery systems such as advanced fuel cells and lithium-air batteries. Earlier post.)
Water will be the primary byproduct. A novel metal complex for electrolysis of water will be used to generate the hydrogen at high rates. ReVolt’s fundamental breakthroughs in air electrodes enable a new class of high-energy rechargeable battery systems that combines key innovations from the fields of fuel cells and batteries.
IBM and its partners have launched a multi-year research initiative exploring rechargeable Li-air systems: The Battery 500 Project. Only the aprotic configuration of a Li-air battery has shown any promise of electrical rechargeability; hence, this configuration is attracting the most effort to date, according to the authors.
Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed a working laboratory demonstrator of a lithium-oxygen battery which has very high energy density, is more than 90% efficient, and, to date, can be recharged more than 2000 times, showing how several of the problems holding back the development of these devices could be solved.
Also on the list of five is the arrival of advanced batteries, including air batteries (e.g., Lithiumair), but targeted initially at small devices. If successful, the result will be a lightweight, powerful and rechargeable battery capable of powering for everything from electric cars to consumer devices. Earlier post.).
Theoretically, with renewable electricity, the 95 gCO 2 /km target could also be met by extended range electric vehicles with 40 miles all-electric range if 50% of driving is powered by the battery, or by fuel cell electric vehicles (FECVs), with hydrogen produced by water electrolysis.
