Abstract
Environmental and safety concerns of energy storage systems call for application of aqueous battery systems which have advantages of low cost, environmental benignity, safety, and easy assembling. Among the aqueous battery systems, aqueous dual-ion batteries (ADIBs) provide high possibility for achieving excellent battery performance. Compared with the "rocking chair" batteries with only one type of carrier involved in the charging and discharging, ADIBs with both cations and anions as charge carriers possess diverse selections of electrodes and electrolytes. Charge carriers are the basis of the configuration of ADIBs. In this Review, cations and anions that could be applied in ADIBs are demonstrated with corresponding electrode materials and favorable electrolytes. Some insertion mechanisms are emphasized to provide insights for the possibilities to enhance the practical performances of ADIBs.

A holistic approach for the recovery of rare earth elements and scandium from secondary sources under a circular economy framework - A review. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 293:133620.

Abstract
Limited natural resources and a continuous increase in the demand for modern technological products, is creating a demand and supply gap for rare earth elements (REEs) and Sc. There is therefore a need to adopt the sustainable approach of the circular economy system (CE). In this review, we defined six steps required to close the loop and recover REEs, using a holistic approach. Recent statistics on REEs and Sc demand and the number of waste generations are reported and studies on more environmentally friendly, economic, and/or efficient recovery processes are summarized. Pilot-scale recovery facilities are described for several types of secondary sources. Finally, we identify obstacles to closing the REE loop in a circular economy and the reasons why secondary sources are not preferred over primary sources. Briefly, recovery from secondary sources should be environmentally and economically friendly and of an acceptable standard concerning final product quality. However, current technologies for recovery from for secondary sources are limiting and technology needs will vary depending on the source type. The quality/purity of the recovered metals should be proven so that they do not result in any adverse effects on the product quality, when they are being used as secondary raw material. In addition, for industrial-scale facilities, process improvements are required that consider environmental conditions.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 414:125564. [PMID: 33684819 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.125564] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2021] [Revised: 02/26/2021] [Accepted: 02/27/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Gluconate is known to mediate metal leaching. However, during bioleaching by e.g., Gluconobacter oxydans, gluconate can be oxidized to 2-ketogluconate and 5-ketogluconate. The impact of bio-oxidation of gluconate on metal leaching has not been investigated. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate leaching of rare earth elements (REEs) and base metals from spent nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) batteries using gluconate, 2-ketogluconate and 5-ketogluconate. Batch leaching assays were conducted under controlled and uncontrolled pH conditions for 14 days using 60 mM of either the individual leaching agents or their various combinations. At target pH of 6.0 ± 0.1 and 9.0 ± 0.1 and without pH control, complexolysis was the dominating leaching mechanism and higher REE leaching efficiency was obtained with gluconate, while 5-ketogluconate enabled more efficient base metal leaching. At target pH of 3.0 ± 0.1, acidolysis dominated, and the base metal and REE leaching yields with all the tested leaching agents were higher than under the other studied pH conditions. The highest base metal and REE leaching yields (%) were obtained using gluconate at target pH of 3.0 ± 0.1 being 100.0 Mn, 90.3 Fe, 89.5 Co, 58.5 Ni, 24.0 Cu, 29.3 Zn and 56.1 total REEs. The obtained results are useful in optimization of heterotrophic bioleaching.

WASTE MANAGEMENT (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2020; 118:677-687. [PMID: 33011545 DOI: 10.1016/j.wasman.2020.09.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2020] [Revised: 09/05/2020] [Accepted: 09/11/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
A multi-analytical methodology is implemented to characterize several sieving fractions of industrial samples of Black Mass (BM) powders originating from the thermo-mechanical treatment of cylindrical and prismatic-type spent nickel metal-hydride (Ni-MH) batteries. Elemental analyses of 17 elements (including C and O) indicate that the elemental composition of the powders (greater than93 %wt) does not depend on the battery type nor on the sieving fraction. XRD analyses evidence several phases (including Ni, NiO, CeO2 and C) but their quantification is not possible. Beyond these standard characterisations, magnetic susceptibility measurements demonstrate that the amount of metallic nickel versus nickel oxide increases with the sieving fraction, and that powders from prismatic-type batteries contain twice as much metallic nickel than cylindrical ones. Thanks to statistical analysis (based on clustering algorithms) of an electron probe µ-analysis (EPMA) compositional map, the complete methodology allows us to propose a full phase distribution for the BM particles. Three types of particles are identified and quantified. They originate from the partial oxidation of the battery components (anode active mass, anode current collector, cathode active mass and cathode current collector). The whole picture highlights the joint importance of battery ageing mechanisms, thermal deactivation and BM sieving steps on powder composition.
