Life Cycle Assessment of Critical Battery Minerals

Research overview

To combat global warming and climate change, lithium-ion batteries have been put into the worldwide market. Batteries, on the other hand, need a lot of energy and materials to make. The mining sector is the primary source of most of these commodities. Using the life cycle assessment technique, I want to reduce the environmental burden of mining related activities.
