Binder‐Free Self‐Standing Hard Carbon Electrodes Graphite‐Coated by PE‐CVD to Boost the Efficiency of Na‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 2, February 2026.
Binder‐free, self‐standing hard carbon electrodes (SSEs) are designed and utilized as anodes in Na‐ion batteries, demonstrating a high reversible capacity of 320 mAh g−1. Coating the SSEs with nanographite via plasma‐enhanced chemical vapor deposition limits the formation of solid electrolyte interphase, thereby improving the iCE to 92.5%.

Unlocking the Potential of Electrolyte Recovery from Battery Waste: A Promising Path to Sustainable and Safe Li‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 2, February 2026.
Due to several challenges, electrolyte recovery from spent battery waste has been less explored compared to electrode materials. This study presents various strategies for recovering electrolytes from spent battery waste. Electrolyte recovery can prevent hazardous chemicals from being released into the environment.

Hierarchical Porosity Engineering of Birch‐Derived Carbons via KOH Activation for High‐Performance Aluminum Batteries

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 2, February 2026.
Birch‐wood biochar activated with KOH at ratios 1:4 (CBW14) and 1:6 (CBW16) yields hierarchical micro‐ and mesoporous carbons for aluminum‐battery cathodes. CBW14 degrades with cycling, whereas CBW16 preserves structure and capacity, showing that tuned hierarchical porosity is key to stable aluminum‐battery performance. Aluminum batteries (ABs) present

Burn Selection: How Fire Injury Shaped Human Evolution

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 2, February 2026.
Intentional fire use exposed humans and their ancestors to high‐temperature burn injury, a risk rare in other species, bringing major survival benefits and technologies but also repeated exposure to extreme heat. The Burn Selection Hypothesis reframes this cost of fire mastery as a unique selective pressure, which shaped our evolution.

Pathways to Zero‐Carbon Energy Systems in Remote Communities of Canada

open access: yesEnergy Storage, Volume 8, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Remote community energy systems in Canada are undergoing supply and load technology‐based interventions to support decarbonization efforts. As wind and solar electricity generators are the predominant energy sources, we evaluate zero‐carbon electrification pathways for remote microgrid applications over a long‐term planning horizon.
