Energy storage devices such as batteries hold great importance for society, owing to their high energy density, environmental benignity and low cost. However, critical issues related to their performance and safety still need to be resolved. The periodic table of elements is pivotal to chemistry, physics, biology and engineering and represents a remarkable scientific breakthrough that sheds light on the fundamental laws of nature. Here, we provide an overview of the role of the most prominent elements, including s-block, p-block, transition and inner-transition metals, as electrode materials for lithium-ion battery systems regarding their perspective applications and fundamental properties. We also outline hybrid materials, such as MXenes, transition metal oxides, alloys and graphene oxide. Finally, the challenges and prospects of each element and their derivatives and hybrids for future battery systems are discussed, which may provide guidance towards green, low-cost, versatile and sustainable energy storage devices.

With the development of electric vehicles involving lithium ion batteries as energy storage devices, the demand for lithium ion batteries in the whole industry is increasing, which is bound to lead to a large number of lithium ion batteries in the problem of waste, recycling and reuse. If not handled properly, it will certainly have a negative impact on the environment and resources. Current commercial lithium ion batteries mainly contain transition metal oxides or phosphates, aluminum, copper, graphite, organic electrolytes containing harmful lithium salts, and other chemicals. Therefore, the recycling and reuse of spent lithium ion batteries has been paid more and more attention by many researchers. However, due to the high energy density, high safety and low price of lithium ion batteries have great differences and diversity, the recycling of waste lithium ion batteries has great difficulties. This paper reviews the latest development of the recovery technology of waste lithium ion batteries, including the development of recovery process and products. In addition, the challenges and future economic and application prospects are described.

Abstract High energy density lithium-ion batteries are urgently needed due to the rapid growth demands of electric vehicles, electronic devices, and grid energy storage devices. There is still significant opportunity to improve the energy density of existing state-of-the-art lithium-ion batteries by optimizing the separator thickness, which is usually ignored. Here, the dependence of battery gravimetric and volumetric energy densities on separator thickness has been quantitatively discussed in different type Li-ion batteries by calculations combined with experiments. With a decrease in separator thickness, the volumetric energy density is greatly improved. Meanwhile, the gravimetric energy densities are significantly improved as the electrolyte soaking in the separator is reduced. The gravimetric and volumetric energy densities of graphite (Gr) | NCM523 cells enable to increase 11.5% and 29.7%, respectively, by reducing the thickness of separator from 25 μm to 7 μm. Furthermore, the Li | S battery exhibits an extremely high energy density of 664.2 Wh Kg-1 when the thickness of the separator is reduced to 1 μm. This work sheds fresh light on the rational design of high energy density lithium-ion batteries.

AbstractHigh-energy-density and low-cost calcium (Ca) batteries have been proposed as ‘beyond-Li-ion’ electrochemical energy storage devices. However, they have seen limited progress due to challenges associated with developing electrolytes showing reductive/oxidative stabilities and high ionic conductivities. This paper describes a calcium monocarborane cluster salt in a mixed solvent as a Ca-battery electrolyte with high anodic stability (up to 4 V vs. Ca2+/Ca), high ionic conductivity (4 mS cm−1), and high Coulombic efficiency for Ca plating/stripping at room temperature. The developed electrolyte is a promising candidate for use in room-temperature rechargeable Ca batteries.
