Energy Storage Materials researchers have created a more environmental friendly aluminum battery than the typical lithium type

As we are increasingly leaning towards products using more clean energies, for example, electric vehicles, lithium battery demand is increasing. The materials used in these batteries, however, have environmental issues of their own. The mines of lithium can lead to air, water and soil contamination causing a leak of toxic chemicals to the surrounding region, all of which can greatly damage local ecosystems. The health of those who undermine an....
