Sean Scott completed his MChem (2:1) at the University of Leicester from 2015-2019. In his final year project he looked at the dissolution of metals from chromite and manganese ores using deep eutectic solvents, providing him with experience in material characterisation and electrochemistry.
Currently, he is working on a ReLiB PhD with Prof. Ryder and Prof. Abbott on the topic of ‘Alternative Binders to simplify the recycling of lithium ion batteries’. This aims to develop electrode materials, which are designed to be recycled through the use of alternative binders, which possess inherent flaws that can be exploited at the end of life.
