In chemistry, some problems are so persistent that they are nicknamed “forever.” Perfluoroalkyl and ...

Researchers in Korea have developed a method to improve the lifespan and performance of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) by introducing a lithium salt into the battery’s electrolyte. The study shows that ...

As electric vehicles become more common, the number of used lithium-ion batteries is soaring. These batteries contain valuable metals such as nickel, cobalt, and lithium, but current recycling methods ...

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are primarily thought of as environmental pollutants, and most research ...

Rice researchers have developed a process to use PFAS to extract lithium from high-salinity brine pools, described in a study recently published in Nature Water.
