Abstract
Developing rechargeable lithium-carbon dioxide batteries is regarded as a promising direction for next-generation energy storage systems. Stabilizing lithium oxalate as the final product for lithium-carbon dioxide batteries significantly decreases the overpotential and improves energy efficiency, accelerating the reaction kinetics. This work provides a timely report of the latest progress and the remaining challenges of lithium oxalate-based lithium-carbon dioxide batteries. The reaction products and mechanism based on two-electron oxalate products are introduced. The advances in electrocatalyst design are summarized. Moreover, electrolyte modulation, including the use of lithium salts and redox mediators, for improving energy efficiency is discussed. Future research should focus on solid/soluble catalyst stability and operating management. This work aims to support the continuous and robust advancement of rechargeable lithium-carbon dioxide batteries.
期刊介绍:
The development of the Current Opinion journals stemmed from the acknowledgment of the growing challenge for specialists to stay abreast of the expanding volume of information within their field. In Current Opinion in Electrochemistry, they help the reader by providing in a systematic manner:
1.The views of experts on current advances in electrochemistry in a clear and readable form.
2.Evaluations of the most interesting papers, annotated by experts, from the great wealth of original publications.
In the realm of electrochemistry, the subject is divided into 12 themed sections, with each section undergoing an annual review cycle:
• Bioelectrochemistry • Electrocatalysis • Electrochemical Materials and Engineering • Energy Storage: Batteries and Supercapacitors • Energy Transformation • Environmental Electrochemistry • Fundamental & Theoretical Electrochemistry • Innovative Methods in Electrochemistry • Organic & Molecular Electrochemistry • Physical & Nano-Electrochemistry • Sensors & Bio-sensors •
