LITHIUM SLAG

Lithium-ion batteries are powering our green energy future, but there's a hidden cost. Every year, China alone produces over 10 million tons of lithium slag (LS) from smelting lithium mica. While we focus on extracting lithium, we're ignoring the environmental risks posed by other harmful substances

Imagine a world where waste materials are transformed into something strong and useful. That's exactly what happened when researchers decided to tackle two problems at once: the massive piles of lithium slag (LS) and the need to improve recycled concrete's strength after it's been exposed to high te
