New battery has double the power and fraction of the dangerous chemicals
2024-09-01
This reads like a press release, but beyond that I’m not qualified to judge — except that a breakthrough in battery capacity would be a very good thing.
[FoxNews] In our tech-driven world, batteries are the unsung heroes powering everything from your smartphone to electric cars. But here's the catch: Traditional battery manufacturing can be pretty harsh on the environment and our health due to those problematic "forever chemicals" called PFAS.

These chemicals sneak into countless everyday products and have even made their way into the bloodstream of most Americans, bringing along a host of health concerns.

That's where Ateios Systems comes in. Based in Newberry, Indiana, this innovative company is shaking things up by developing a new way to make batteries without these harmful substances.

A NEW ERA IN BATTERY MANUFACTURING
Ateios Systems has developed an innovative electrode manufacturing process that not only removes forever chemicals but also offers a 20% reduction in costs, a 50% increase in energy density and an 82% decrease in energy consumption during production. This breakthrough is not just about creating a cleaner battery; it's about making batteries more efficient and cost-effective, which is crucial as the global battery market continues to grow rapidly.

#6  You know, this kind of smell like a scam, one clue is the use of the word " innovative".

When a company use terms like " innovative", "futuristic", "revolutionary", etc. in their promotions, said company eventually either fail or the principles are charged with fraud/thief or both, often resulting in jail time

This company is apparently seeking more money to line their pockets support further development efforts.

#3  ^Ya, sure. Cause all the companies involved in producing the current version don't own the DC alphabet soup.

#2  Who write this headline? It sounds like a Kamila Harries word salad, a butch of non sense words string together.

Sounds lile the company found a new way to make alkaline batteries.
