With such a high level of attention and investment in the mobility sector for the development of batteries to power current and future electric vehicles, the need for safe and responsible battery handling practices is stronger than ever. In the case of EVs, critical materials can be extracted and used to power the next electric car.

GE Energy has signed a technology licensing agreement with Hydrogen Energy (HEI) for a proposed 250-megawatt power plant that would use integrated gasification combined-cycle (IGCC) technology. The Hydrogen Energy California County project would be the first power plant built under that alliance. Earlier post.).

You notice the smell of smoke, and when you try to turn on your bedside light you discover that the power is out. The main reason is access to power. If we had a sensor network that rarely—or never—drew power, imagine how many important places and things could be monitored, how many lives could be saved.

Improper disposal poses risks such as soil and water contamination. 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 reduces the need for new material extraction.

Look at the periodic table, and think of the elements needed for a prosperous planet powered by renewable energy. In 1894, a German chemist named Herman Frasch plotted a process of tapping a sulfur-containing mineral deposit by pumping it with superheated water. Sulfur likely won’t be the first to come to mind.

While reconstructing Ørsted's experiments, Faraday was not entirely convinced that electricity acted like a fluid, running through wires just as water runs through pipes. He took a deep glass vessel, secured a magnet upright in it with some wax, and then filled the vessel with mercury until the magnetic pole was just above the surface.

The historical progression of wavelengths went from 365 nanometers, generated using a mercury lamp, to 248 nm, via a krypton-fluoride laser, in the late 1990s, and then to 193 nm, from an argon-fluoride laser, at the beginning of this century. Nevertheless, the industry has had to make that wavelength change a number of times.
