Metal–Air Batteries: Will They Be the Future Electrochemical Energy Storage Device of Choice?

Open access
Li, Yanguang, Lu, Jun·2017·ACS Energy Letters

Abstract

Metal–air batteries have a theoretical energy density that is much higher than that of lithium-ion batteries and are frequently advocated as a solution toward next-generation electrochemical energy storage for applications including electric vehicles or grid energy storage. However, they have not fulfilled their full potential because of challenges associated with the metal anode, air cathode, and electrolyte. These challenges will have to be properly resolved before metal–air batteries can become a practical reality and be deployed on a large scale. Here we survey the current status and latest advances in metal–air battery research for both aqueous (e.g., Zn–air) and nonaqueous (e.g., Li–air) systems. An overview of the general technical issues confronting their development is presented, and our perspective on possible solutions is offered.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
