Lithium, the lightest metal on the periodic table, plays a pivotal role in modern life. Its low weight and high energy ...

Discover how scientists created a low-cost membrane that selectively captures lithium from water, potentially transforming ...

I also show a far from perfect extraction process to remove the sodium from the slag. It accomplishes its purpose, however inefficiently.

Among the headline findings were the presence of silicate clouds in one of the planet's atmospheres, and a circumplanetary disk thought to feed material that can form moons around the other.

Tech Engineers develop next-gen method to extract over 99% of vital metal in minutes: ' [It] powers the technologies that define our modern lives' Conventional extraction methods involve either ...

A new type of fuel cell that runs on sodium metal could one day help clean up sectors where it’s difficult to replace fossil fuels, like rail, regional aviation, and short-distance shipping.

This reaction produces lithium sodium silicate, a compound that dissolves readily in room-temperature water. When water is added, the lithium leaches out in about a minute.

The sodium silicate market was valued at $7.2 billion in 2019, and is anticipated to generate $9.2 billion by 2027. The market is projected to experience growth at a CAGR of 3.7% from 2020 to 2027.

Lower-cost sodium-ion batteries are finally having their moment World's largest battery maker touts second-generation sodium-ion battery.

A research team is exploring new battery technologies for grid energy storage. The team's recent results suggest that iron, when treated with the electrolyte additive silicate, could create a high ...
