This focus article briefly looks at nanofiltration membrane technology it has developed to recover lithium from used car batteries. It also discusses an ion-conductive polymer membrane it has created to enhance the safety and longevity of lightweight air batteries used to power industrial drones and required to make urban air mobility systems a reality.","PeriodicalId":52434,"journal":{"name":"Membrane Technology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44584238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
