As an energy storage device, battery has been rapid developed in recent years with the typical environmental problems such as consumption of resources and heavy metal pollution. Therefore, it is urgent to conduc. ••Environmental impact of LAB, LMB and LIPB are quantified with LCA.••. The battery was invented in 1859 to convert chemical energy into electrical energy (Dyer et al., 2009, Kurzweil, 2010). Nowadays the main kinds of batteries are lead acid battery. LAB, LMB and LIPB are carried out following the LCA procedure and ReCiPe midpoint (H) model analysis is performed. According to the normalized analysis results, the envir. 3.1. Environmental impact analysisThe ReCiPe midpoint (H) model is used to analyze the environmental impact of different battery production processes. The environmental im. 4.1.

[PDF Version]With regard to the battery, the LCA is one of the most effective ways of exploring the resource and environmental impact of a battery's life cycle, a system of assessment has been developed by ISO 14040. Based on the LCA model, Zackrisson et al. (2010) explored how to optimize the design of lithium-ion batteries in plug-in hybrid electric vehicles.
Life cycle assessment (LCA) literature evaluating environmental burdens from lithium-ion battery (LIB) production facilities lacks an understanding of how environmental burdens have changed over time due to a transition to large-scale production.
The proportion of aluminum shells in lithium manganese oxide battery of freshwater eutrophication, human toxicity, freshwater ecotoxicity and marine ecotoxicity is 25.73%, 28.38%, 28.52% and 28.14% respectively, and the proportion of total environmental impact load is 18.23%.
GHG emissions during battery production under electricity mix in China in the next 40 years are predicted. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and environmental burdens in the lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) production stage are essential issues for their sustainable development.
Unlike raw material extraction and processing, most environmental impacts during the battery manufacturing process are directly linked to energy use (on-site combustion and off-site electricity generation), so this section will focus on energy use as the key driver of impacts.
Biological effects are mainly reflected in the accumulation and emission of mercury, copper, lead, and radioactive elements, while pollutants are mainly reflected in the impact of toxic chemical emissions on marine organisms. The METP of the six types of LIBs during battery production is shown in Fig. 14.

Concentrated solar power (CSP, also known as concentrating solar power, concentrated solar thermal) systems generate solar power by using mirrors or lenses to concentrate a large area of sunlight into a receiver.
Concentrated solar power (CSP) is a promising technology to generate electricity from solar energy. Thermal energy storage (TES) is a crucial element in CSP plants for storing surplus heat from the solar field and utilizing it when needed.
SolarPACES (Solar Power and Chemical Energy Systems) has compiled data on concentrating solar power (CSP) projects worldwide that indicate that a total of 6128 MW CSP plant is operational, 1592 MW plants are in the development phase, and 1547 MW plants are under construction.
The main difference between CSP and photovoltaics is that CSP uses the sun's heat energy indirectly to create electricity, and PV solar panels use the sun's light energy, which is converted to electricity via the photovoltaic effect. Concentrated solar power systems require a significant amount of land with direct sunlight or irradiance.
Concentrated solar technology systems use mirrors or lenses with tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight onto a small area. The concentrated light is then used as heat or as a heat source for a conventional power plant (solar thermoelectricity).
Solar PV power generation utilizes photoelectric effect to directly convert solar energy into electricity, which is a direct photoelectric conversion mode. CSP is light-heat-electric conversion mode which converts the absorbed heat energy into steam through a solar collector and then drives a steam turbine to generate electricity.
