A recent survey of magnesium sacrificial anode cathodic protection systems installed on Bahrain Petroleum Co. (BAPCO) pipelines in 1998 revealed that many of the anodes had failed prematurely and ...

Magnesium-air batteries have emerged as a promising energy storage solution due to their high theoretical energy density and the abundance of magnesium. However, practical implementation has been ...

Scientists have pioneered a method to enable the reversible chemistry of magnesium metal in the noncorrosive carbonate-based electrolytes and tested the concept in a prototype cell. The technology ...

The growth of the electric vehicle market demands innovative, sustainable battery solutions and higher efficiency from battery systems. Scientific investigations have shown that magnesium can serve as ...

Provisions in the 2013 VGP seek to protect U.S. water quality and inhibit the spread of invasive marine species. Specifically in regard to cathodic protection, the VGP calls for owners to select ...

Anode-free metal batteries represent an exciting new design, where prefabricated anodes are eliminated to maximize energy densities. For example, in magnesium (Mg) metal batteries, instead of starting ...

Despite their popular use today, lithium-ion batteries have the drawbacks of being toxic and expensive, with a global supply shortage of metal. And for decades, researchers have tried to look for ...
