Uludag, Ahsen Akbulut published the artcileLife Cycle Analysis of Lithium-Air Batteries Designed with TEGDME-LiPF6/PVDF Aprotic Electrolytes, Quality Control of 143-24-8, the main research area is life cycle assessment lithium air battery aprotic electrolyte.
In this study, possible environmental effects of lithium-air battery production and use in elec. vehicles are studied using life cycle assessment (LCA). TEGDME + LiPF6/1% wt PVDF electrolyte is selected, and 0.5% wt Al2O3 and 0.5% wt SiO2 nanoparticles are added sep. to this electrolyte. The batteries are produced and tested under laboratory conditions, and 25 kW h power packs are modeled with different electrolytes. A functional unit “”environmental impact per 1 km”” is chosen. The battery modeled with 0.5% wt SiO2 added electrolyte has a low global warming potential (GWP) of 83.5 g CO2-eq/km. Because of the low energy potential, the 0.5% wt Al2O3 added battery exhibits the highest GWP at 158 g CO2-eq/km. It is determined that the environmental effects of batteries are largely due to the high elec. energy needed during the cathode production for the battery cell. While the GWP of a 1% wt poly(vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF) battery is caused by 68.4% of the battery production process, this ratio is 93.3% for 0.5% wt Al2O3 added battery. It is determined that the lithium-air battery technol. has lower emission values than internal combustion engines operating with fossil fuels.
