Green Science Alliance more than doubles aqueous aluminium battery capacity
Green Science Alliance has more than doubled the initial capacity of its aqueous rechargeable aluminium-ion battery, reporting a rise from approximately 103 mAh g⁻¹ to at least 210 mAh g⁻¹ after introducing a low-cost conductive carbon rubber sheet as the cathode current collector. The development, led by Dr Ryohei Mori, could help address cost and manufacturing challenges associated with aluminium-based batteries. The company said the improved cell maintained its reported capacity for at least 25 cycles, with testing still under way. The result marks progress for aqueous rechargeable aluminium-ion batteries (AAIBs), which have attracted research interest because aluminium is abundant, comparatively inexpensive and recyclable. However, their commercial development continues to face...
NALCO’s Angul Aluminium Park targets deeper value addition through downstream manufacturing
National Aluminium Company Ltd (NALCO) is seeking to push more of its aluminium output into higher-value applications through the Angul Aluminium Park, with the park’s direct access to molten metal positioned as a key advantage for downstream manufacturers. NALCO, in association with Odisha Industrial Infrastructure Development Corporation (IDCO), showcased investment opportunities at the park during a roadshow in Kolkata. The focus was not only on attracting new industries but also on building a downstream ecosystem around NALCO’s existing aluminium operations in Angul. NALCO and IDCO develop park through joint partnership The Angul Aluminium Park is being developed through a partnership between IDCO and NALCO, with IDCO holding 51 per cent and NALCO 49 per cent. The project has an...
