Lithium metal anode is desired by high capacity and low potential toward higher energy density than commercial graphite anode. However, the low-temperature Li metal batteries suffer from dendrite formation and dead Li resulting from uneven Li behaviors of flux with huge desolvation/diffusion barriers, thus leading to short lifespan and safety concern.
Lithium (Li) plays a crucial role in Li-ion batteries (LIBs), an important technology supporting the global transition to a low-carbon society. Recycling Li from spent LIBs can
The project intends to produce 24 kt/yr of battery-quality lithium hydroxide, by combining extraction from the underground brine with associated geothermal plants under a closed fluid cycle, a lithium extraction plant and a refining plant.

A recent United States Geological Survey (USGS) report supports Schmidt''s assertion. ''Lithium has been listed as one of the critical or near-critical elements in various recent studies based largely on its importance in green technologies,'' the USGS said, adding, ''Battery manufacturing has the largest growth potential of any sector of the lithium industry.''
Within the rapidly expanding electric vehicles and grid storage industries, lithium metal batteries (LMBs) epitomize the quest for high-energy–density batteries, given the high specific capacity of the Li anode (3680mAh g −1) and its low redox potential (−3.04 V vs. S.H.E.).
