Battery waste is a major environmental threat, with the US alone discarding around 3 billion batteries each year, generating ...

Introduced in the early 1990s, it uses nickel and metal hydride plates with potassium hydroxide as the electrolyte. NiMH batteries do not suffer quite as much from the "memory effect" as do nickel ...

It contains substances that pose a threat to both human health and ecosystems. At the same time, however, batteries also ...

Scientists developed a process that can be used to recover nickel from spent nickel-metal hydride batteries. From this battery waste and used aluminium foil, it was possible to produce a nanocatalyst ...

Lithium cells outperform Nickel Cadmium and Nickel Metal Hydride in almost every way. But they also need a little bit more babysitting to get the most out of them. That comes in the form of ...

To better understand these two products, let's explore the key differences between Nickel-Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) batteries and Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) batteries, helping you make an informed choice ...

Scientists at the Technology University of Vienna (TU Wien) have found a way to turn battery waste into fuel, developing a ...

Some of the first Sony Discmans included rechargeable batteries. These batteries were nickel metal hydride batteries (because of the technology of the time) and are now well past their service life.

By integrating a new type of metal hydride refrigeration system, this potential can be exploited and, depending on the application, up to 10% more range can be achieved. The cooling power of the metal ...

The storage system is based on an electrolyte relying on nickel metal hydride (NiMH) that provides means for ionic conductivity in the cells, while occupying limited volume. The electrolyte can be ...
