The growth of Li-ion batteries creates surging demand for lithium, but there is an increasing need for extraction methods that are efficient, sustainable, and versatile across different environments and regions. This article highlights how the emergence of direct lithium extraction (DLE) technologies will allow producers to satisfy these needs while scaling up to meet global lithium demand in the coming decade.

IDTechEx forecasts that the critical material recovery market value will exceed US$66 billion per year by 2046, as demand, waste volume, and regulatory pressures all grow. Lithium-ion batteries and rare earth magnets are set to become key secondary sources of critical materials, as commercially mature recycling technology capacity scales in anticipation of growing waste volume becoming available in the 2030's.

The article explains some of the benefits that adoption of new advanced coating technologies can bring. This can come both in terms of higher performance, as well as supporting both direct and indirect regulatory compliance. These benefits can be brought to several industries, such as automotive, oil & gas, aerospace, construction and wind energy.

Thermal management has an imperative role to play in the landscape of advancing modern technologies. This article explores applications from high-performance computing and data centers to advanced batteries in electric vehicles.

As global demand for critical rare earths, battery materials, and semiconductors surges, end-of-life waste is quickly transforming into a strategic goldmine of critical materials. With IDTechEx forecasting that over US$66B of critical material value will be recovered from waste annually by 2046, IDTechEx evaluates hydrometallurgy, pyrometallurgy, and other emerging recycling technologies for critical material recovery.

As advanced electrification increases across many major sectors, including automotives and electronics, new trends and innovations are increasingly notable within the battery industry. This article covers multiple additives and advanced sensing technologies for batteries.
