We have reported the effects of substituting a transition metal in silicide on the electrochemical performance of the silicide/Si composite anode for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs); the CrVSi/Si electrode exhibited much better cyclability compared with CrSi/Si and VSi/Si electrodes. Herein, we investigated the electrochemical performance of a Cr V Si/Si slurry electrode for its application in LIBs, and the results obtained were compared to those of a gas deposition (GD) electrode, which was comprised of only active materials. The slurry electrode exhibited a superior cycling life as with the GD electrode. After charge-discharge cycles, the expansion of the electrode thickness of CrSi/Si and CrVSi/Si was smaller than that of VSi/Si, and VSi was significantly pulverized compared with the other silicides. It is considered that VSi deformed easily by the stress from Si expansion and pulverized because the hardness of VSi was the smallest among the silicides used in this study. These results reveal that CrVSi/Si has great potential as an anode material for next-generation LIBs and hardness is an important property for compositing silicide with Si.

A recyclability perspective is essential in the sustainable development of energy storage devices, such as lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), but the development of LIBs prioritizes battery capacity and energy density over recyclability, and hence, the recycling methods are complex and the recycling rate is low compared to other technologies. To improve this situation, the underlying battery design must be changed and the material choices need to be made with a sustainable mindset. A suitable and effective approach is to utilize bio-materials, such as paper and electrode composites made from graphite and cellulose, and adopt already existing recycling methods connected to the paper industry.

The voltage is one of limited reliable information for battery management system, and the faults of voltage sampling will result in adverse effects and lead to potential risks for operation, which emphasize the importance for investigating the failure modes of voltage sampling and diagnosis algorithm. In this article, a knowledge-data driven sampling diagnosis algorithm is established and an online intelligent diagnosis algorithm is proposed accordingly based on outlier detection with fuzzy entropy. The fault diagnosis algorithm is established and evaluated under positive exploitation, where the knowledge-base of failure mode based on equivalent simulating models is firstly constructed.

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are eco-friendly leaching agents which have emerged as potential candidate for recovery of valuable metals from spent LIBs (lithium-ion batteries). Earlier reports show use of more mount of chemicals, long leaching duration and less efficiency. The present work has been carried out to observe the leaching efficiency of two DES-water blend systems such as ChCl:CA(2:1) +30% HO and ChCl:MA(1:1)+20% HO for the leaching of Li and Co from cathodic material of spent LIBs using design of experiments and optimization through CCD (central composite design) of Response surface methodology(RSM) approach.

We propose an effective method for selectively extracting the valuable metals from the spent LiNiCoMnO cathode material using an oxalic acid-based deep eutectic solvent. Through regulation of the coordination environment, NiO, CoO, and MnO are stepwise separated and further applied in the electrochemical conversion of raw PET bottles to high-purity formic acid.

Commercialization of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries is largely limited by polysulfide shuttling and sluggish kinetics. Herein, 2D nanochannel interlayer composed of alternatively-stacked porous silica nanosheets (PSN) and TiCT-MXene are developed. The 2D nanochannels with selective cation transport characteristics facilitate lithium ion rapid transport, while reject the translocation of polysulfide anions across the separator.
