Scientists discover way to revive batteries by injecting fresh lithium

A Chinese research team has devised a way to give depleted batteries a new lease of life.

They used AI and organic electrochemistry to create a special lithium-containing compound that releases its lithium payload when hit with the right voltage conditions inside a battery.

Using this technique, the researchers were able to almost completely restore the capacity of a heavily degraded lithium iron phosphate battery that had lost 15% of its charge.
