University of California, Riverside – In a groundbreaking study, researchers at the University of California, Riverside, have unveiled a novel method to convert traditional alkaline batteries into rechargeable energy storage systems. This innovation has the potential to significantly enhance energy storage technology, offering a safer, more cost-effective alternative to current rechargeable batteries like lithium-ion. A New Approach to Battery Technology Alkaline batteries, widely used in household devices, have been long valued for their affordability and ease of use. However, their single-use nature has been a significant limitation. The UC Riverside team, led by Professor of Chemistry, Dr. Suresh Sharma, has developed a process to enable these batteries to be recharged, thereby extending their lifecycle and reducing environmental impact. The new technique involves modifying the chemical composition of the alkaline battery, allowing it to be reused multiple times without significant...
