Parallel connected battery modules are a necessary component of large battery packs to increase the overall pack capacity. Unlike series connected cell systems, conventional parallel battery modules have a sparse sensing arrangement such that the battery management system (BMS) does not measure individual cell currents and temperatures. In this arrangement, single cell failures and current […]

Summary: Data-Based Aging Model for Scale BESS The study addresses the challenge of developing lithium-ion battery aging models for large-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), which is hindered by the lack of real-world operational data. The goal is to analyze operational data from a BESS to detect anomalies, characterize stress factors, and replicate real-world cycling […]

The overwhelming majority of lithium-ion batteries currently in use feature a graphite anode, which is approaching its maximum theoretical capacity. Lithium metal batteries are regarded as pivotal enablers for the forthcoming generation of lithium-ion technology, largely due to their superior energy density. Indeed, lithium (Li) metal has the lowest reduction potential (-3.04 V vs. std […]

With the surging penetration of the energy storage market, LiFePO4 (LFP) batteries are playing an increasingly pivotal role in achieving carbon neutrality and transportation electrification. However, the complex minor loop hysteresis in the open-circuit voltage (OCV) and the wide voltage plateau during the middle state-of-charge (SOC) range pose significant challenges to accurate modeling and state […]

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) cells have the potential to provide high gravimetric density energy storage, but currently suffer from rapid capacity degradation due to redistribution of the electrochemically active material during cycling. Research to address this challenge typically aims to synthesise cathodes with homogeneously dispersed sulfur particles, seeking uniform current density and discharge product deposition to enable […]

Approximately four billion discarded tires end up in landfills each year due to inadequate recycling, contributing to severe environmental concerns. Transforming waste tires into carbon powder for alkali-ion battery anodes presents a promising recycling solution, yet heavy metals and unwanted elements hinder electrochemical performance. Conventional purification methods rely on harsh chemicals like concentrated sulfuric acid […]

Electrode cutting is a significant process step in the production of lithium ion batteries. Different cutting technologies exist to singularize electrode sheets out of electrode coils e.g. mechanical and laser cutting. The laser cutting process combines the conventional notching of the current collector and cutting out electrode sheets. This process provides a high cutting flexibility […]

The demand for more powerful lithium-ion cells necessitates new active materials and electrode formulations with higher specific capacities. Silicon and lithium metal are promising candidates for enhancing anodes, but their integration presents challenges, particularly related to significant volume changes—silicon can expand by about 300% during lithiation, and lithium’s deposition can be extensive. Understanding the mechanical […]

Establishing an independent and sustainable battery value chain necessitates a closed-loop recycling approach. Recycling end-of-life lithium-ion battery (LIB) cells is critical to prevent their disposal in landfills, where they may release harmful substances into the environment, including fluorine (F), nickel (Ni), manganese (Mn), cobalt (Co), and organic components such as electrolytes and their degradation products.
