The counter electrode in electrochemical lithium recovery

Electrochemical lithium extraction methods have recently attracted significant attention as alternatives to the currently employed techniques. A considerable effort has been made to develop this technology, especially in searching Li-ion selective electrodes. However, much less attention has been pa...
