Li-ion battery risks reduced by VOC sensors

Envirotec Magazine

Li-ion is the principal battery chemistry used in EVs, for example. Photoionisation detection (PID) sensors are able to detect potential problems before they occur in the manufacture and use of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, and the enormous variety of devices that use rechargeable batteries. Famously, in 2016, around 2.5
