Progress is being made on developing more efficient lithium-ion batteries, with Flinders University researchers supporting work on a clean, green energy platform.
SA Scientist of the Year finalist Professor of Clean Technology Colin Raston and research associate Dr Kasturi Vimalanathan are using the Vortex Fluidics Device (VFD) developed at Flinders University to produce graphene-wrapped fullerene composite spheres which have the potential to be used as an “all carbon” energy storage material.
The project, led by 2D Fluidics Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of Australian Stock Exchange listed First Graphene, is researching alternative graphite products to traditional spherical graphite as a basis for developing graphite mines.
