- Saltwater Battery

0

Saltwater batteries are already available, but manufacturers find it quite difficult to produce. Nevertheless, here are some quick facts about them. Saltwater batteries are similar in design to other batteries. Much like the name suggests, saltwater batteries use sodium as the primary element for energy storage instead of lithium. That makes these batteries less toxic, but while sodium is abundant, they can be relatively expensive.

When Can We Expect It?

Some saltwater batteries are available, but challenges in manufacturing costs mean that saltwater batteries aren’t advancing as quickly as some alternatives. Saltwater batteries also aren’t as dense as many of the alternatives, which means size can be a challenge for manufacturers as well. So, while some are available, more advanced versions of saltwater batteries may be slow to release.

Advantages

Saltwater batteries come with a long list of advantages over other battery technologies thanks to the change in element composition. For one thing, saltwater batteries are significantly less flammable than other types of liquid batteries. They also offer improved safety since the batteries don’t use many of the toxic chemicals and acids other batteries rely on.

Not using those toxic chemicals and acids also makes saltwater batteries significantly easier to recycle.

Saltwater batteries also tend to have a relatively long life cycle and don’t burn out easily. That makes them a reasonable option for new solar battery technology as well.
