2021 ME Dasgupta EV Batteries
Daniel Penley, Graduate Student Research Assistant in Mechanical Engineering, reviews his laser manufacturing techniques that drill holes in the graphite anode of EV batteries inside Professor Neil Dasgupta's laboratory at 3658 G. G. Brown on North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI on Friday May 7, 2021.
The University of Michigan is researching ways to harness abundant materials for battery production, or reuse older materials to relieve the disproportionate pressure placed on countries like Democratic Republic of Congo for cobalt or the Philippines for nickel.
