Chinese Scientists Develop Long-Lasting Non-Toxic Water-Based Battery
A team of Chinese scientists has created a long-lasting, environmentally friendly battery using organic electrodes and a non-toxic electrolyte. This water-based battery is safe for disposal, unlike conventional lithium-ion batteries that require hazardous waste processing. The new batteries are cheaper to produce and eliminate flammability risks, making them suitable for electric vehicles and grid storage.

Chinese scientists have developed a water-based battery that features organic electrodes and a non-toxic electrolyte, comparable in safety to tofu brine. This battery is environmentally friendly and poses no disposal hazards, unlike lithium-ion batteries which involve toxic waste processing.
The new battery design reduces the risk of flammability and is more cost-effective for applications like electric vehicles and grid storage. The research highlights exceptional long-term cycling stability and environmental benefits under neutral conditions, as published in Nature Communications.
