Plus, some prototypes demonstrate energy densities up to 500 Wh/kg, a notable improvement over the 250-300 Wh/kg range typical for lithium-ion batteries. Looking ahead, the lithium metal battery market is projected to surpass $68.7 billion by 2032, growing at an impressive CAGR of 21.96%. 9. Aluminum-Air Batteries
However, there are still key obstacles that must be overcome in order to further improve the production technology of LIBs, such as reducing production energy consumption and the cost of raw materials, improving energy density, and increasing the lifespan of batteries .
Lithium-sulfur batteries (Figure 2), like solid-state batteries, are poised to overcome the limitations of traditional lithium-ion batteries (Wang et al., 2023). These batteries offer a high theoretical energy density and have the potential to revolutionize energy storage technologies (Wang et al., 2022).
Traditional lithium-ion batteries have been criticized for their use of lithium, cobalt, and nickel, which require significant mining and processing (Llamas-Orozco et al., 2023). However, new battery technologies that use sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium may offer more sustainable alternatives that are more abundant and widely distributed.
Further research should focus on optimizing these technologies and exploring their scalability in industrial applications. A multidisciplinary approach combining materials science, chemistry, environmental engineering, and data science is crucial for overcoming challenges related to lithium-ion battery recycling.
These emerging frontiers in battery technology hold great promise for overcoming the limitations of conventional lithium-ion batteries. To effectively explore the latest developments in battery technology, it is important to first understand the complex landscape that researchers and engineers are dealing with.
