For years scientists have stumbled in the research about aluminum batteries because they have yet to crack the code of what materials to use for the anode and cathode of the battery so that it could enable efficient energy storage with enough energy content.
Researchers from Sweden's Chalmers University of Technology and the National Institute of Chemistry in Slovenia came up with a new concept for an aluminum battery design that promises twice the energy density compared to previous aluminum battery versions.
With lithium-ion batteries, recycling is one major issue as few economically feasible technologies for battery recycling currently exist.
The new concept, described in an article in the journal Energy Storage Materials, upends the previous designs of the aluminum battery.
Graphite doesn't have enough energy content to be useful in a battery cell.
The Swedish-Slovenian team of scientists is not the only one working on aluminum battery breakthroughs.
A team at UNSW Sydney said last December that they had found a new way to design rechargeable aluminum batteries by using a large organic chemical compound as the part of the battery that stores energy, which was a fundamental challenge before that.
