Toyota report grapples with energy storage challenge in logistics

Envirotec Magazine

Solid-state batteries differ from lithium-ion batteries in that the latter uses a liquid electrolyte. The promise of the solid electrolyte is increased energy density, and a solid-state battery can be up to 10 times that of a lithium-ion unit of the same size. ”

Breakthrough technology for lithium manufacture

Envirotec Magazine

Consequently, raw materials are wasted and product purity – the most important product quality – is difficult to control, which is especially important because impurities significantly affect the performance of Li-Ion batteries. Consequently, there are enormous demands for lithium production to be efficient, high-quality and fast.

Commercial leap for RO tech with production of bespoke water treatment units

Envirotec Magazine

Salinity Solutions says its technology more than halves the energy used, with the help of a patented combination of a pressure exchange vessel and advanced recirculation control. It also generates around 80% less waste than conventional RO methods, says the firm. Conventional RO expends a lot of energy pumping water through a membrane.
