Sylvatex is complete bullshit. I’d call it “Greenwashing” at best. They aim to offset the bad stuff, but they haven’t developed any kind of radical tech or process that fundamentally changes the landscape.

Until a research breakthrough hits for common materials, we’re just sitting in the shit.

Eeeh I imagine a battery that is better…

Now please give me money to make it.

Many extremely competent people are working on making better batteries, just saying “reimagine” reeks worthless bullshit.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The race is on to generate new technologies to ready the battery industry for the transition toward a future with more renewable energy.

Corporations and universities are rushing to develop new manufacturing processes to cut the cost and reduce the environmental impact of building batteries worldwide.

The California-based company Sylvatex has developed a water-free, efficient process for manufacturing cathode active material (CAM).

According to Alex Kosyakov, co-founder and CEO of the battery-component company Natrion, the usual process for manufacturing lithium-ion cathodes and batteries has many steps.

Manufacturers begin by taking ores with low initial concentrations of mined metals such as cobalt, manganese, aluminum, and nickel.

The treatment results in the release of sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere, which causes acid rain and creates workplace safety issues.
