Additionally, glycine is a natural buffer, keeping the solution at a neutral pH and making the process much safer than traditional acid-based recycling techniques. But here’s the real surprise ...

Researchers have developed a new method for recycling spent battery materials that can extract 99.99% of the lithium from used cathodes. The method is pH neutral and uses significantly less energy ...

Glycine also keeps the solution at a neutral pH because it’s a “natural buffer,” which makes this whole procedure far safer ...

The Chinese researchers used an innovative method for studying the recycling process. In situ primary battery effect, based ...

A new strategy for recycling spent lithium-ion batteries is based on a hydrometallurgical process in neutral solution. This allows for the extraction of lithium and other valuable metals in an ...
