'..rechargeable lithium-iron-oxide battery .. a much higher capacity battery..'

Posted by archive 
'On paper, it doesn’t seem like Christopher Wolverton’s super lithium-rich battery should work. For one, the novel battery uses iron, an inexpensive metal that has notoriously failed in batteries. And in another difficult feat, the battery leverages oxygen to help drive the chemical reaction, which researchers previously believed would cause the battery to become unstable.

But not only does the battery work, it does so incredibly well.

Teaming up with researchers at Argonne National Laboratory, Wolverton’s group developed a rechargeable lithium-iron-oxide battery that can cycle more lithium ions than its common lithium-cobalt-oxide counterpart.

The result is a much higher capacity battery that could enable smart phones and battery-powered automobiles to last much longer.'

Context

(Project C - MDE - Focus Fusion) - LPPFusion achieves minimum goal of $400 K

(SAFIRE) - '..the foundation by which these energies can be beneficially harnessed.'

(The Electric Universe) - '..In reality, moving magnetic fields within a plasma create electric currents.'
