Optimizing Lithium-Ion Battery Cycles for Maximised Lifetime and Safety

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are crucial to support targets set by India’s Nationally Determined Contributions of about 50% from the non-fossil fuel based resources, particularly for the intermittently available renewable energy such as solar and wind power. The performance and lifespan of LIBs are limited by the irreversible degradation in the physical processes that undergo at the electrode level of each battery cell.  These are greatly influenced by the nature of charging (from renewable sources) and discharging (load demand) cycles.

Research Scholars' Symposium 2025

The RSS, initiated in 2007, is an annual flagship academic event organized by the research scholars of the Department of Chemical Engineering at IIT Bombay. Patronized by the Chemical Engineering Association (ChEA), RSS serves as a premier platform for showcasing cutting-edge research, provides a unique opportunity for networking and knowledge exchange among students, researchers, faculty, and industry professionals.
