Battery advances

This seems like the amazing discovery that adding rebar and mesh could make concrete slabs more durable. It is nice to see highly educated engineers (re?)discover these things.
 
Very cool.

These are the kind of endeavors renewable enthusiasts should be occupied in: making renewables work so they can take the place of fossil fuels.

Much better than wasting endless hours peddling advertisements for what are still just toy technologies.

This is very interesting, using titanium nitride over a steel mesh is very stable, and could solve
some of the stability issues.

That is cool... for 410 C...

From the paper:


Conclusions

The use of a porous electronically conductive membrane, which achieves chemical selectivity by preferred faradaic reduction of vulnerable transition-metal ions rather than by regulated ion conduction, has been demonstrated successfully with a plurality of all-liquid displacement battery chemistries. It has not escaped our notice that the faradaically selective membrane reported here may have potential utility in other electrochemical devices (beyond energy storage) where delicate, ion-selective ceramic membranes are currently deployed.
