This Training Centre aims to transform Australia’s battery and resource industry by building advanced manufacturing capability for recycling mixed battery materials, promoting 2nd-life re-use, redesigning high performance batteries towards a battery circular economy, and advancing the supporting regulatory landscape. The research will address the challenges associated with battery recycling, deliver industrial demonstrations and promotion policies, and create a dynamic skilled workforce. Outcomes are expected to shape a distinctive battery recycling model that shifts Australia to zero battery waste to landfill; establish a profitable and self-sustaining onshore industry chain; and help ensure the future of Australia’s energy security.Read moreRead less

Summary
Bio-inspired Sustainable Materials for Self-powered Environmental Sensing . This project aims to address the industry need for self-powered, light-weight and durable Internet of Things (IoT) devices for environmental sensing applications. The goal will be achieved by designing high power moisture-driven electric generators with a bi-layer interfacial architecture, developing non-flammable energy storage devices with cost-effective electrodes, and printing low power environmental sensors with he ....Bio-inspired Sustainable Materials for Self-powered Environmental Sensing . This project aims to address the industry need for self-powered, light-weight and durable Internet of Things (IoT) devices for environmental sensing applications. The goal will be achieved by designing high power moisture-driven electric generators with a bi-layer interfacial architecture, developing non-flammable energy storage devices with cost-effective electrodes, and printing low power environmental sensors with hetero-structured materials. The key outcome will be a new class of IoT devices with high power density, sustainable output, and real time environmental monitoring capabilities, that will directly benefit Australian industry by providing cost-effective, yet efficient ways to monitor and support safe working environments.Read moreRead less
