Recycling of silicon solar panels through a salt-etching approach
We report a simple salt-etching approach to recycle Ag and Si from end-of-life Si solar panels without using toxic mineral acids and generating secondary
pollution.
Reducing supply risk of critical materials for clean energy via foreign direct investment
Our study provides a comprehensive overview of how Foreign Direct Investment influences the supply security of critical materials necessary for the clean energy transition.
A new electrolyte formulation for safe and long-cycling batteries
Safety is an essential dimension of battery sustainability. Here we show an formulated electrolyte with excellent chemical and thermal stability proves nonflammable and works in a wide working temperature range from −75 to 80 °C.
