Lithium Air Batteries - WhatNext

Aluminium-air Batteries and Lithium-air Batteries for EVs: A Comparison

Lithium-Air Batteries for EVs Lithium-air batteries (LABs) reduce oxygen from the air at the cathode and oxidises lithium metal at the anode to produce a current flow during discharge. The lithium-air battery can obtain oxygen from the air externally, removing the need for internal storage. This results in a higher energy density compared to that of …

Aqueous alkaline systems and solid sorbent systems for direct air capture – A comparison

Most adsorbents used for direct air capture of carbon dioxide are reversible. These adsorbents can be cycled several times to capture and release carbon dioxide. The most common chemisorbents used for direct air capture of carbon dioxide from the air include calcium and sodium-based sorbents. Physisorbents like metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), activated carbons, and zeolites have …
