Minerals to Batteries: Where do they come from?

  • August 27, 2022

  • Lizzadro Museum of Lapidary Art, Oak Brook

The commercial development of Sony’s lithium-ion battery in 1991, has transformed the technical world we live in – from laptop computers, mobile phones, power tools, electric vehicles, and – more recently – grid energy storage. Join Dr. Andrew Jansen from Argonne National Laboratory to learn what makes a lithium-ion battery work, why it is such a game changer, and where we find the elements used in it.
