Mn oxides are important geomaterials widely used in various technological applications. In this work, we present our results on the behaviour of the most common Mn oxides having compact and channel structures during laser irradiation. We show that the spinel structure of hausmannite is the final degradation product of all these compounds.

ABSTRACT The growth and metal enrichment of ferromanganese minerals on the seafloor have intrigued many studies, yet the role of microbes in the process has remained elusive. Here, we assessed the microbial influence on the growth and trace metal accumulation and release of ferromanganese concretions from the Baltic Sea using 12‐week microcosm ...

Abstract The Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) is Earth's largest current flowing around Antarctica at all depths and connecting major ocean basins, thus representing an important component of Earth's climate. However, the timing and key controls determining ACC flow path and its strength as a function of past climatic boundary conditions that ...

Lithium Ion Batteries: Characteristics, Recycling and Deep‐Sea Mining
Composite electrodes, as cathode materials, are found to increase electrode stability along with metal carbide‐based anode materials that have shown greater thermal and oxidation resistance. Recycling centres of spent lithium ion batteries are on the rise, with improved techniques such as biometallurgy improving the efficiency of recovering precious ...
