It’s clear that a battery revolution is coming, but what are we doing to protect our environment? Here’s a look at the whole picture of lithium ion battery recycling.
your channel is awsoem ! keep it up ^^
@Xeno Phon How can what created earth be the cause of its death? You really are that fucking stupid aren't you? Climate change is a fucking hoax.
@@HarryPottard YES
@@atvkid0805 NOT open your eyes please
Most of the lithium comes from the middle of a huge inhospitable desert in Chile where even plant life doesnt exist.
This is an encouraging video, nice to see there are people working on this. Thank you to all the researchers! You are the true heroes in this story.
It’s highly recommended to watch all ColdFusion videos before watching this one
Really, like all of them?
G Embry I wouldn't say all, but this video is essentially a series to his electric centric videos, again I don't think you need to watch all.
Tbh it's a bit shilling towards Tesla.
I wachte a lot of coldfusiontv videos but I don't understand your comment
@@Pgeorgiex he's just saying the vids are good watch them
@@B0bSim0n his saying that every cold fusion video is amazing and it's worth watching every video on this channel
New video from ColdFusion? *AWH YEAH* !🙌🔋🙌
agreed!
Nice to find you in all of my favourite TH-camr comment sections👍
Love his thoughtful content, always feel I that I have learnt something new or been presented with a new way of looking at a topic!
Alex Korocencev haha I do love a little bit of TH-cam 😅
Yo man. I am a subscriber of yours. Nice to see you here.
i think the thing we can all agree on. is that companies needs to recycle their own junk/products their customer consume that they sell to the customer/putting out to the environment
And how they gonna do that? You gonna introduce yet another tax which will burden smaller companies even more? It a lot easier to deal with segregated materials then deal it on individual manufacture level.
The Earth is a closed system we all have to share.
Who said anything about taxing the consumers?How about you legislate and push force companies to design their products to be recyclable? You can't just have industrial productions like this forever.
A progressive tax based on volume of batteries sold which feeds into recycling company tax breaks could work, it's kinda roundabout but still workable.
Smaller companies wouldn't feel it but very large companies could take the hit and factor it into pricing
@Alkrizz not "surpressing", extincting! Google for "Georgia guidestones" if you do not already know them ...
As a geologist this video has been quite informative and calming to watch. I had fears regarding recycling and disposal of batteries in the new electric boom but now i know there are ways to prevent most of it. Still education for consumers is key!!!
Thanks for sharing the really important topics we all should be informed about...
Came here from the cell phone video. Could you please do another video on this? And consumer e waste in general? Things must have changed in the last 4 years, but I am worried there is just that much more being thrown away. One factor you could look into is the losing of all of this e waste along with less offices being occupied and so many more people working from home. A close friend is currently clearing an 11 story building of offices and the waste is beyond comprehension. Everything from brand new in the box electronics to several year old desks and chairs are being thrown away in mass. I have seen that on small scale for businesses, but never that scale.
I still remember the good ol' days, sticking a fresh new pair of Double-A batteries into my Gameboy colour (turquoise, obviously) and knowing I could beast it at Pokemon (blue, of course) for houuuurs! Ah batteries, ye little cheeky powerhouses you!
Ps Blue > Red...change my mind 😅
haha I knew I'd see you here, thought you also had the bell on for ColdFusion!!!
And yeah, Blue > Red all day!
Nigga you gay, playing dem nigtendos. Changed your mind yet?
Green > Blue > Red... Change my mind!
Damn you plebs
Yellow > Blue > Red all the life.
Harsh Agarwal purple > yellow
Excellent coverage on an important topic. I watched your previous video on the next step in battery evolution and was pleasantly impressed and encouraged. You are even handed and do thorough research and you neither praised nor trashed tesla; you just presented your findings and raised your concerns, then enumerated the likely positive, useful outcomes for the next phases of battery recycling and environmentally friendly possibilities. Thank you!
Actually i believe that those standardized form-factor batteries are easy to dismantle and separate. Reversed process or bullet manufacturing. A) Cut both heads (sizes are standardized) B) push piston and wet + roll of lithium film will be pushed out. C: Put 2 needles and roll out the film D: then pass with precise gravity powered calibrated load one side of film over
grater to remove powder E: turn arround film and do it again (probably assisting with ultrasonic). E: Liquid (electrolyte) must be collected and chemically separated in high purity components F: wet powder is to dry off and recycle - make again fine grain powder with proper size nanostructure for next batteries.
I see more problems with already burnt batteries, or pouch batteries that got moisture inside (puffed).
Excellent video. been watching you for a year now. As a content creator myself, i really admire your videos. Keep up the good work.
Wow!! Props to the quick truckdriver at 2:37!
Been here since 150k subs. Glad to see this great channel has grown
3:43 Rob Summerville's telepathic capabilities are quite impressive.
Jay Starr 😂😂
Just ordered your book mate, looking forward to reading it.
4:57 Ultrasonic washing is using high frequency sound (above human hearing threshold) , not low like they said in the video.
Design with recycling in mind. I think this should be applicable to everything. Thank you for taking the time in making this very informative video.
I love You Tube, however I get more excited than any other content provider when I see a 1 next to Cold Fusion. Keep up the great videos dude.
Daaaaamn 1.6 million subscribers??? I remember when this guy was at like 15,000. I downloaded his phone background pack back in highschool lol. Good stuff man! You had amazing videos back then I'm sure they have only gotten better! You got another follower from me man 👍
Glad to see ColdFusion growing so fast, got noticed on Shane Dawson's last video.
Who is Shane Dawson
@@megajimmyhat6333 Just TH-cam him, and by youtube him I literally mean type his name on that big search bar at the top, you're welcome.
Give a man a link and his curiosity will be satisfied for a day, teach him how to find things out and he will be content for a lifetime.
CIA wise words my friend
It makes me uncomfortable to watch that Skype video at such a low fps after Dagogo's voice along with the smooth music transition. Awesome video though, the guy has insights and expectations. He knows what's up.
Just close your eyes and listen then it's not that bad ;D
He lives in Australia and I heard the internet there aren't good compared to the USA
@@Poorgeniu5 If plugged into Ethernet (if doing the call via skype or another pc/mac software) then only 2mb connection is needed for a smooth video call.
If both guys have ethernet cables plugged in it should be a non issue (I think).
I’m Australian. Can confirm our internet is rubbish. My steam downloads run just under 1mbps
@@karlos1008 125 kB/s kiloByte speed downloading GigaByte files, that is so sad
I'm from Malaysia, internet service here is a rubbish too.
Haven't been so excited in life, since the last ColdFusion video
Informative video, I appreciate the efforts by ColdFusion for spreading awareness regarding environment...... and also liked the logo of Faraday institution :)
Great video, as always) thanks for bringing such issues to our attention!
Best way to start a Monday.
Can you do a video on Graphene batteries
He did if I am not mistaken.
Best channel on TH-cam ..... content is gold ....love the work of this man ...
Another great video! And yes, here in Belgium we can also bring back batteries to shops and other public places, already many years. Can't imagine just throwing them in the garbage bin...
It would seem the simplest solution to so many problems is one Law. Anything Produced has to be made safe or recycled before it is allowed into the Public or Private Market
A round of applause for you sir ! Lot's of discussions end up me sending a link to your video.
If I ever see Dagogo in the street, I will run and hug him. You are awesome dude. And your music playlist helped me a lot too 😎🌻
One of the only people I have notifications turned on for :)
Yup, same here.
He, Kurzgesagt - In a Nutshell and a few others for me. :)
"one of the only" WTF?
Thank you, please keep us updated on this.
Dude you channel is so proffesionaly done. great vids like always and wish you all best in future work
Great Channel! There is always something to learn ... Keep up the good work. Thank you :)
Thanks for the video.. never knew about dangers / complexity involved with battery recycling
Environmental factors are real, so are the costs of wars waged on other countries that have what we intend to steal, like oil, lithium, Cobalt and more. The real costs of batteries needs to be accounted in terms of human blood as well as environmental concerns.
Very informative and complete, thank you so much for sharing
It's really gives me hope for a greener future seeing the efforts put into battery recycling
Big issue with current age of technology is battery. It’s primitive, short life span and worst of all it’s harmful waste. Thank you CF for being this up it’s about time we all take responsibility.
2:25 quick reaction saved the day there..
Awesome video! This answers all my questions
That interview with Rob displayed Australia's network prowess perfectly!
great work and thank you for all the news
Great video mate appreciate what you do.
I really hope they work something out. The amount of batteries being disposed of in the next 20-30 years is a scary thought.
You never disappoint. Great video!
hey love your videos, just showing support :), keep them up, i look forward to the next one each time.
It’s sad, you think this day in age we would be evolving and progressing. Yet we’re devolving. Our current trash company got rid of our recycling. Then the company we were gonna go to next also removed recycling, so rn we have no options to recycle. Sad times.
What a great episode! Thank you!
In France, we have a "polluter-payer" law, which basically means that if a store sells light bulbs, batteries, electronics, appliances, they have to implement a solution to recycle them as well. That means that any customer or not can just drop its light bulbs at the store that will take care of it afterwards. I guess we could extend this to a lot more products like food that is not good to eat so they can compost it or sell it to farmers for animals
Wow this is my favorite track from Nils Frahm in the background . Them.
I need to start up a battery recycling center. As I write this there are 1.5 million Kilometer batteries for cars. so the life has been extended to about 30 years and they are constantly trying to extend even that. That being said there is still a lot of money in recycling the batteries and that demand will only grow.
Thanks a lot for the amazing work. keep it up
Hey man! I still love the content but really miss the nice imagery from before... On the other hand it's nice to see how one of my all time favourite yt channels has grown 😃
Gotta love good content. The future looks good...
This was great insight for folks who no nothing about the next steps in recycling.
Another great video bud! Thank you!
Thanks for the knowledge Coldfusion good content
Attention!!! The audiobook will be out February 26, 2019 on Audible narrated by Ron Butler, I already preordered it.
It is disappointing to see no mention of the American Manganese recycling process. We have a patent approved process that recovers 100% of the lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese, and aluminum from a variety of lithium-ion battery chemistries.
👍
I really like your videos ,you are an inspiration to me for having a sense of responsibility towards our environment.
You deserve More,🙏🏼🙏🙏✌️👌
2:10 “...which can cause explosions or prolonged environmental damage”
_flashback to Galaxy Note 7 exploding batteries_
good thing the note 7 did explode it brought it to everyone attention that these batteries are dangerous.
actually the Galaxy Note 7 batteries exploding was a hoax , no actual battery exploded, a few puffed a little smoke that was it.
My galaxy s5 exploded last week
Evariste Galois just 90 Note 7s were reported as catching fire out of 2million shipped. 90 in 2M is statistical noise.
Plenty of iphones catch fire too.
I expected it from you
Coz you are dumb af
Even today recycling is not done enough. Battery recycling might go the way of solar panel recycling. They are either in land fills or setting in a warehouse in large piles. New energy is on peoples minds and still no one recycles them. Sad. Thanks for reading
Thanks! This was eye opening.
In The Netherlands it is also normal to not throw batteries/electronic devices in the trash. All grocery stores have boxes where you can leave your old batteries in, and old electronics can be returned to companies that sell electronics. I assumed this was similar for the rest of the world, but I am wrong apparently.
Excellent. Very informative.
Awesome video Dagogo! Very detailed studied
Excellent. Can’t wait to see the primer video to this one. But for now, my comment for this video and this issue is just one word: “Opportunity.” Fully recognizing the very real and serious environmental issues, one should be simply exhilarated by the endless scientific and entrepreneurial opportunities here; opportunities to help and profit. Astounding. Simply astounding. We are living through a time that will later be recognized as one of the greatest moments in the history of our species.
Huge like for this video. :)
That was a very informative video, thanks.
Thank you for the video. Love it.
Tell me a more iconic duo, ill wait
Elon Musk And Meme Review
Nice Channel. Good work. Thanks!
great video as always!!!
I request you to please make a video on the history of batteries....
Biotech student chiming in.
We are discovering/creating more and more powerfull methods for genetic modification and we will see much more applied biology in the years to come.
We already use many biological solutions to many problems. I would be so bold to say that it is maybe our most advanced technology.
Different micro organisms and their macromolecules are microscopic machines that can perform different Work and solve different problems. They are wonderful :)
What happens if the bacteria escape? Are we all dead then?
@@cachememory im not sure if i follow? 🙂
@@atti1120 He meant that if those micro organic that are created with generic modification spread to environment, would it cause any issues?
@@varshard0 strains used for production or whatever are specialised for that, and said strains would have no chance of competing outside of the comfy environment that is optimized for them. Our crude modifications would have to compete with organism perfectly tuned to nature through billions of years of evolution. In Nature there is not any, and i mean any room for waste of energy. There Will basicly be a selection pressure against having genes that are not useful in Nature or is wasteful of energy/ressources.
Besides that, if we need to - we can, and in some cases already do make them die automatically outside the intended environment :)
Good article.
Thanks.
Please start including subtitles again!
During the consumption of Goal, useful products are received such as heat and Co2 which can be used for further growing of energy and food crops. Coal is a finite resource but there are so many steps in it's consumption we should be using, first we have to de-vilify Co2 and start using it and producing it with purpose.
Very informative video thank you, however just wondering about the impact of the other mined materials that involve, cobalt, nickel, manganese, graphite, copper and aluminum, to produce the battery?
Outstanding video.
Dear dagogo. Huge fan, much support. A topic appealing to me at the moment is “modern day propaganda”👍 A bit broad and intense but how is the average cyber consumer supposed to realize it?
I'm almost hooked on these videos, really interesting stuff and never biased which is quite rare these days, nice one.
The governments all over the World definitely need to encourage education about the recycling of these materials everywhere like in schools and so on, it'll benefit everyone and the Planet for the future. It's great that big steps are being planned and done though, even in the mining process like Volvo using Hydrogen fuel cell diggers and earth movers.
Can you do a video on hydrogen fuel cells please, I'd love to see an unbiased video about the advances and potential futures of it.
It‘s definitely biased, but you don‘t recognize it, because it is the same opinion like yours ...
Great knowledge
I think that the biggest problem with batteries is that they are sold individually a solution would be making everything with intagrated batteries. As for the recycling I think that it will be substantially different from what we are seeing today.
Excellent take on the side effect of the batteries.
Part 3 : Ultra capacitors and its evolution into the battery!
And capacitors charge insanely fast. So if they can be made with similar energy densities to current batteries, it is a massive win as they have FAR more duty cycles and are infinitely more recyclable. If the elusive graphene ultracapacitor can be achieved in scale, then everything changes. To the extent of almost fusion power level changes.
@@JasonPrice1 There are only 2 problem with supercaps, even if energy density is solved:
1. Their self-discharge rates are quite high.
2. Their voltage goes down significantly as you discharge, unlike rechargeable battery chemistries which go down slowly in voltage.
Supercapacitors are not a replacement for batteries. They fill a different niche. Batteries are for when you want kilowatt-hours. Supercapacitors are for when you want megawatt-seconds.
If you want backup power to run a building for a day when the power goes out, you want a heap of batteries.
If you want to cushion your grid connection against startup power surges when you restart your factory, you want a heap of supercapacitors.
@@Roxor128 Exelant point !!!
Tesla just bought battery and supercapacitor producer Maxell for ~200 million dollars. You might want to dig into that story, as they are probably already developing the future battery technology for Tesla ;)
Yes, especially this.
Supercaps have very low energy density, but extremely high power density.
Even if their energy density doesn't improve much in the mid-term, their characteristics could be used to stabilize grids all around the world, especially with the rise of electric cars.
Hyperchange TV did a great in depth about this
2:35, that guy knows what's up!
Love your content bra keep up with it
Thank you
I have always considered “garbage” as partially refined ore.
I’m sure we’ll figure this one out. . . because there is money in it.
Wellplayed
Love your videos. Please keep up the good work. :-)
@ColdFusion, since your channel is more about technology combined with music, I would suggest a video on Dolby. Would be excited to see this one on your channel 😊
Thank you for the video.
The environmental imact of lithium extraction/mining includes the people who are losing their way of life in forfeiting their land to their governments, so the industry can prevail. The governments reap the payoff of the industry while there are people who are forced to give up their life as they know it and move to the urban areas. This is good business. You have to be a consumer, living in a city.
Wants more videos on battery : invention, Structures, new concepts and more....
And, Also thanks for makes video on battery technology's
Its easy to me on researching on battery technology.
I love your music.
