Birmingham Group Joins Argonne Industry Collaboration Day

Gavin attended the Industry Collaboration Day at Argonne National Laboratory in Lemont, Illinois, in November 2019. The day was hosted by the ReCell Center, and Gavin was part of a group from the University of Birmingham. The discussions explored UK-US collaboration between ReCell and the ReLiB project on lithium-ion battery recycling. The invitation followed several visits by Gavin to the laboratory and a number of research papers he has co-authored with colleagues there, including Linda Gaines and Qiang Dai.
