A European study on Critical Raw Materials for Strategic Technologies and Sectors in the European Union (EU) evaluates several metals used in batteries and lists lithium (Li), cobalt (Co), and natural graphite as potential critical materials (Huisman et al., 2020; European Commission 2020b).
Examples of batteries that can benefit from biomass-based aqueous electrolytes include sodium-ion batteries, potassium-ion batteries, and zinc-ion batteries. These battery types are considered attractive alternatives to lithium-ion batteries due to their lower cost and abundance of raw materials.
EV Batteries currently use the electrode materials of lithium manganese oxide (LMO), lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC), lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide (NCA), and lithium iron phosphate (LFP) (Matos et al., 2022). 1.2. State-of-the-art and future of LIB recycling
These battery types are considered attractive alternatives to lithium-ion batteries due to their lower cost and abundance of raw materials. By incorporating biomass materials into the electrolytes of these batteries, researchers aim to enhance their performance, safety, and overall sustainability.
