Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology have succeeded in creating a battery made of carbon fibre composite that is as stiff as aluminium and energy-dense enough to be used commercially.

Let’s take a look inside a single-use alkaline battery you might have at home. A battery works when the original chemicals inside it are still new and unused. When electricity starts flowing, these ...

needed for the battery anodes was obtained by pulverizing solar cell fragments with a vibration mill. The cells had been previously mechanically dismantled from the modules and then cut into 6 mm ...

The discovery uses tiny micro batteries to break down the lithium, nickel, cobalt and manganese from a battery, before using an amino acid to extract the metals. The use of glycine as the amino ...

The Baghdad Battery is believed to be about 2000 years old (from the Parthian period, roughly 250 BCE to CE 250). The jar was found in Khujut Rabu just outside Baghdad and is composed of a clay jar ...
