From smartphones and laptops to the rapidly growing EV market, we need an incredible amount of lithium-ion batteries to make it all work. Materials like lithium are difficult and time-consuming to mine and extract … and can have a major impact on the environment. Can nanotechnology solve our lithium extraction and mining problem? And maybe even help with solid-state batteries? I talk to Teague Egan from EnergyX about some interesting advancements in nanotech, metal-organic frameworks, and more.
It's Just Technology
