NTU Singapore scientists develop new method to recover high-purity silicon from expired solar panels for upcycling into lithium-ion batteries

Caption

The NTU Singapore researchers used the recovered silicon in a lithium-ion battery anode and tested it for efficiency. Results showed that it performed similarly to new, commercially bought silicon.
