Optimized Morphology and Tuning the Mn3+ Content of LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 Cathode Material for Li-Ion Batteries

Optimized Morphology and Tuning the Mn3+ Content of LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 Cathode Material for Li-Ion Batteries (external link)

Synthesis of cobalt-free LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO) with the sol-gel method, yielding a more stable material with both a lower concentration and a better homogeneous distribution of Mn3+ ions. This positively impacts the spinel's conductivity as well as the diffusion of Li+ ions during charge-discharge cycles.

Flowsheet design and environmental impacts of cobalt co-product recovery from complex Au-Co ores

Flowsheet design and environmental impacts of cobalt co-product recovery from complex Au-Co ores (external link)

Through LCA, the baseline of only recovering gold from sulfidic Au-Co-(Cu-As) ores is compared with five scenarios where both gold and cobalt are recovered. Furthermore, in order to better assess the advantages and challenges of the studied options, an investigation on the technical performance and the several impact categories affecting climate change, ecosystems, and human health is made.
