Abacwaningi baphumelele ukwandisa isikhathi sokuphila kanye nokuzinza kwesimo esiqinileamabhethri e-lithium-ion, okudala indlela esebenzayo yokusetshenziswa kabanzi esikhathini esizayo.

Umuntu ophethe iseli yebhethri le-lithium enempilo ende ebonisa ukuthi i-ion implant ibekwe kuphi Amandla amabhethri amasha, anobuningi obukhulu akhiqizwe yi-University of Surrey asho ukuthi mancane amathuba okuthi angakwazi ukujikeleza isikhathi eside — inkinga etholakale kumabhethri e-lithium-ion angaphambilini.

UDkt Yunlong Zhao wase-Advanced Technology Institute, eNyuvesi yaseSurrey, uchaze wathi:

"Sonke sizwile izindaba ezesabekayo zamabhethri e-lithium-ion ezindaweni zokuhamba, ngokuvamile ngenxa yezinkinga eziphathelene nokwakheka kwesikhala okuqhekekile okubangelwa ukuchayeka ezindaweni ezicindezelayo, njengokushintsha kwezinga lokushisa okukhulu. Ucwaningo lwethu lufakazela ukuthi kungenzeka ukukhiqiza amabhethri e-lithium-ion aqinile kakhulu, okufanele ahlinzeke ngendlela ethembisayo yamamodeli esikhathi esizayo anamandla aphezulu futhi aphephile angasetshenziswa ezibonelweni zangempela njengezimoto zikagesi."

Besebenzisa isikhungo sikazwelonke esisezingeni eliphezulu e-Surrey's Ion Beam Centre, ithimba elincane lafaka ama-ion e-Xenon ezintweni ze-ceramic oxide ukuze bakhe i-electrolyte yesimo esiqinile. Ithimba lithole ukuthi indlela yabo yakha i-electrolyte yebhethri ebonise ukuthuthuka okuphindwe ka-30 esikhathini sokuphila ngaphezu kwe-ibhethrilokho okwakungakafakwa.

UDkt. Nianhua Peng, umbhali ohlanganyele wocwaningo wase-University of Surrey, uthe:

"Siphila ezweni eliqaphela kakhulu umonakalo abantu abawubangelayo emvelweni. Sithemba ukuthi ibhethri lethu kanye nendlela yethu kuzosiza ekukhuliseni intuthuko yesayensi yamabhethri anamandla amakhulu ukuze ekugcineni asiyise ekusaseni elizinzile."

INyuvesi yaseSurrey iyisikhungo socwaningo esihamba phambili esigxile ekuzinzeni ukuze kuzuze umphakathi ukuze ibhekane nezinselele eziningi zokushintsha kwesimo sezulu. Iphinde izibophezele ekuthuthukiseni ukusebenza kahle kwezinsiza endaweni yayo nokuba ngumholi womkhakha. Ibeke isibophezelo sokuthi izohlala ingathathi hlangothi ngo-2030. Ngo-Ephreli, yabekwa endaweni yama-55 emhlabeni yi-Times Higher Education (THE) University Impact Rankings ehlola ukusebenza kwamanyuvesi angaphezu kuka-1,400 uma kuqhathaniswa ne-United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
