The production of sodium carbonate from common minerals like salt and limestone makes sodium production more straightforward. Sodium batteries consist of two main electrodes: an anode and a cathode.
Hard carbon, which can be produced from synthetic or biological precursors, is the main active material used on the anode side for sodium-ion batteries. The scientific focus at Fraunhofer ISE is on the thermal treatment of biological precursors such as sawdust or coffee.
The raw materials used in solid-state battery production include: Lithium Source: Extracted from lithium-rich minerals and brine sources. Role: Acts as the charge carrier, facilitating ion flow between the solid-state electrolyte and the electrodes. Solid Electrolytes (Ceramic, Glass, or Polymer-Based)
The main raw materials used in lithium-ion battery production include: Lithium Source: Extracted from lithium-rich minerals such as spodumene, petalite, and lepidolite, as well as from lithium-rich brine sources. Role: Acts as the primary charge carrier in the battery, enabling the flow of ions between the anode and cathode. Cobalt
Cathode active material for sodium-ion batteries can be produced from elements that have a high and evenly distributed availability worldwide. Precipitation of precursors.

Lithium-ion batteries require five key raw materials or minerals: and Graphite. After being mined from the earth, these minerals are processed and refined into usable raw materials for battery manufacturing. Mining and refining these minerals into usable, high-quality powders is energy-intensive and difficult.
Both types of battery cells are mainly based on abundant raw materials. The anode is made up of hard carbon from either bio-based lignin or fossil raw materials, and the cathode is made up of so-called "Prussian white" (consisting of sodium, iron, carbon and nitrogen). The electrolyte contains a sodium salt.
Sodium-ion capacitors (SICs), designed to attain high energy density, rapid energy delivery, and long lifespan, have attracted much attention because of their comparable performance to lithium-ion capacitors (LICs), alongside abundant sodium resources.
To satisfy the requirements for various electric systems and energy storage devices with both high energy density and power density as well as long lifespan, sodium-ion capacitors (SICs) consisting of battery anode and supercapacitor cathode, have attracted much attention due to the abundant resources and low cost of sodium source.
The optimizations and applications perspectives of sodium-ion capacitors on the emerging field have been delivered. As energy storage technology continues to advance, the rapid charging capability enabled by high power density is gradually becoming a key metric for assessing energy storage devices.
The in-depth classification and analysis of the recent work on metal oxides for sodium-ion capacitors. The storage mechanism of sodium-ion capacitors in a definite manner have been summarized. The detailed outlooks on the existing issues of metal oxides as anode materials for sodium-ion capacitors have been proposed.
The authors declare no conflict of interest. Abstract In the past 10 years, preeminent achievements and outstanding progress have been achieved on sodium-ion capacitors (SICs). Early work on SICs focussed more on the electrochemical performan...

Sodium and lithium belong to the same group (alkali metals) on periodic table, exhibiting similar intercalation electrochemical behavior. Similar to LICs, sodium ion capacitors (SICs) utilize Na+ as a charge carrier and integrate the dual principles of both supercapacitors and rechargeable batteries.
