Iraqi PM Meets to Speed Up Basra Steel Factory Rehabilitation; Graphene Found to Improve Battery Performance

On Sunday, Iraqi Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani convened a special meeting to discuss the rehabilitation project for the steel factory in Basra Governorate. During the meeting, Al-Sudani was updated on the progress of work related to the rehabilitation and operation of the project. He listened to a comprehensive presentation on the procedures performed by the authorities in charge of implementing the project. The factory, one of the lagging projects, was scheduled to open two months ago but faced obstacles that required this special meeting to address.

Al-Sudani emphasized the importance of removing all obstacles and technical problems hindering the project’s completion. He stressed the need to complete the installation of smelting equipment, systems, and production lines. Al-Sudani also highlighted the importance of working around the clock to speed up the project’s progress. He directed implementing agencies to adhere to agreed-upon time limits and commitments. This directive was consistent with his previous visit to the company in March, during which he opened the rolling mill.

In another context, a study published in Nature Communications found that using graphene as an electrode material could significantly improve battery performance and increase their lifespan.

Graphene is known for its unique properties such as high conductivity, flexibility, and high surface area which make it ideal for use as an electrode material in batteries.

The study showed that graphene electrodes had higher energy density than traditional electrodes made from carbon nanotubes or lithium iron phosphate.

Furthermore, graphene electrodes demonstrated superior cycling stability compared to other materials used in batteries.

The study highlights that graphene has immense potential as a next-generation battery material due to its excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical strength.

Overall, this research paves way for new developments in battery technology that can lead towards cleaner and more sustainable energy solutions for future generations.
