In order to comply with the expected tightening of discharge limits for lithium to surface waters, the lithium-ion battery industry will need access to methods to reduce the concentration of lithium in wastewater down to ppm levels. In this Communication, we discuss the possibility of using sodium and choline soaps as precipitating agents for lithium, comparing the two soap classes and probing the influence of the carbon chain length. It was found that lithium concentrations down to 10 ppm can be reached with sodium stearate, and down to 1 ppm with choline stearate, using a slight excess of the precipitating agent.

Polymer electrolytes incorporated with fillers possess immense potential for constructing the fast and selective Li conduction. However, the inhomogeneous distribution of the fillers usually deteriorates the microdomain consistency of the electrolytes, resulting in uneven Li flux, and unstable electrode-electrolyte interfaces. Herein, we formulate a solution-process chemistry to in situ construct gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) with well-dispersed metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), leading to a uniform microdomain structure.

Direct regeneration of spent lithium-ion batteries offers economic benefits and a reduced CO2 footprint. Surface prelithiation, particularly through the molten salt method, is critical in enhancing spent cathode repair during high-temperature annealing. However, the sluggish Li+ transport kinetics, which relies on thermally driven processes in the traditional molten salt methods, limit the prelithiation efficiency and regeneration of spent cathodes.

With significantly high lithium-ion (Li) transport efficiency, single-ion conducting polymer electrolytes (SIPEs) often suffer from low ionic conductivity due to the covalently bonded anions to the polymer backbone. Adding plasticizers to SIPEs to improve ionic conductivity usually reduces the polymer matrix's mechanical robustness, negatively affecting overall performance as solid electrolytes. Herein, to surpass such a trade-off relationship, we successfully designed a single-ion conducting composite membrane (c-SIPM60) with cross-linked linear SIPEs and incorporated glass-mesh substrate, which shows a cation transport number close to 1, ultrahigh tensile strength of 22 MPa (modulus of 547.

Pushing the limit of the charging cut-off voltage inevitably leads to the instability of bulk and interfacial structures. Herein, one-step dual-modified LiCoO (LCO) is achieved by thermodynamic decomposition of lithiuim salts on the surface, featuring F-doped bulk and LiF & LiBO coating layers. Notably, such artificial near-surface reconfiguration effectively suppresses Co dissolution, structural deconstruction and electrolyte side reactions during repeated lithiation/delithiation processes.
