“…Moreover, up to 11 kg of sugar are required to obtain 1 kg of hard carbon ( Peters et al., 2019 ), where the energy-demanding (electricity and heat) carbonization process and the nitrogen required for maintaining an inert atmosphere during production contribute to environmental impacts. Additionally, cathode active materials for LIBs comprise cobalt and lithium (lithium cobalt oxide LiCoO 2 , lithium manganese oxide LiMn 2 O 4 , lithium iron phosphate LiFePO 4 ) ( Manthiram, 2020 ), while NIBs require nickel hexacyanoferrates (Ni 2 [Fe(CN) 6 ]) or sodium vanadium phosphates (Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 ) ( Shen et al., 2020 ; Zhang et al., 2019 ). Contrarily, the use of heavy metals such as cobalt, manganese or nickel in Li–S batteries is not required, where cathodes use sulfur quantities as large as 70% by weight.…”

Lithium-sulfur (Li–S) batteries present a great potential to displace current energy storage chemistries thanks to their energy density that goes far beyond conventional batteries. To promote the development of greener Li–S batteries, closing the existing gap between the quantification of the potential environmental impacts associated with Li–S cathodes and their performance is required. Herein we show a comparative analysis of the life cycle environmental impacts of five Li–S battery cathodes with high sulfur loadings (1.5–15 mg·cm −2 ) through life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology and cradle-to-gate boundary. Depending on the selected battery, the environmental impact can be reduced by a factor up to 5. LCA results from Li–S batteries are compared with the conventional lithium ion battery from Ecoinvent 3.6 database, showing a decreased environmental impact per kWh of storage capacity. A predominant role of the electrolyte on the environmental burdens associated with the use of Li–S batteries was also found. Sensitivity analysis shows that the specific impacts can be reduced by up to 70% by limiting the amount of used electrolyte. Overall, this manuscript emphasizes the potential of Li–S technology to develop environmentally benign batteries aimed at replacing existing energy storage systems.

“…The medium peaks that represent C-H stretching at 2923 cm −1 and 2853 cm −1 can be found for the RDP-FC-Ni 16 . Interestingly, the strong sharp peak that represents the C≡N bond and indicates the presence of K 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ] modification, is also found for the RDP-FC-Ni as for the RDP-FC-Cu 34 , 54 . However, the peak is less sharp and strong as well as it can be seen at a slightly different wavelength of 2090 cm −1 .…”

“…This further confirms the chemical modification and change on the RDP. Furthermore, a strong sharp peak appeared for the RDP-FC-Cu at 2078 cm −1 which corresponds to the C≡N bond indicating the presence of K 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ] and the modification by the potassium hexacyanoferrate 54 . Another characteristic functional group is shown on the FTIR spectrum of the RDP-FC-Cu at 1107 cm −1 .…”

In this paper, novel composite materials from modified roasted date pits using ferrocyanides were developed and investigated for the recovery of lithium ions (Li+) from seawater reverse osmosis (RO) brine. Two composite materials were prepared from roasted date pits (RDP) as supporting material, namely potassium copper hexacyanoferrate-date pits composite (RDP-FC-Cu), and potassium nickel hexacyanoferrate-date pits composite (RDP-FC-Ni). The physiochemical characterization of the RO brine revealed that it contained a variety of metals and salts such as strontium, zinc, lithium, and sodium chlorides. RDP-FC-Cu and RDP-FC-Ni exhibited enhanced chemical and physical characteristics than RDP. The optimum pH, which attained the highest adsorption removal (%) for all adsorbents, was at pH 6. In addition, the highest adsorption capacities for the adsorbents were observed at the initial lithium concentration of 100 mg/L. The BET surface area analysis confirmed the increase in the total surface area of the prepared composites from 2.518 m2/g for RDP to 4.758 m2/g for RDP-FC-Cu and 5.262 m2/g for RDP-FC-Ni. A strong sharp infrared peak appeared for the RDP-FC-Cu and RDP-FC-Ni at 2078 cm−1. This peak corresponds to the C≡N bond, which indicates the presence of potassium hexacyanoferrate, K4[Fe(CN)6]. The adsorption removal of lithium at a variety of pH ranges was the highest for RDP-FC-Cu followed by RDP-FC-Ni and RDP. The continuous increase in the adsorption capacity for lithium with increasing initial lithium concentrations was also observed. This could be mainly attributed to enhance and increased lithium mass transfer onto the available adsorption active sites on the adsorbents’ surface. The differences in the adsorption in terms of percent adsorption removal were clear and significant between the three adsorbents (P value < 0.05). All adsorbents in the study showed a high lithium desorption percentage as high as 99%. Both composites achieved full recoveries of lithium from the RO brine sample despite the presence of various other competing ions.

“…NiHCF thin films with thicknesses in the range of 200 to 250 nm were prepared using the sequential deposition or electrodeposition process [82][83][84] [86]. The monoclinic NiHCF (m-NiHCF) cathode delivered a high specific capacity of 70.1 mA h g À1 with 97.1% capacity retention after 8000 cycles (at 500 mA g À1 ) because m-NiHCF has higher Na content, fewer Fe(CN) 6 vacancies, and fewer coordination water than typical cubic NiHCF (c-NiHCF) due to the presence of a chelating agent and surfactant during co-precipitation (Fig.…”
