| description | The evolution of our dynamic world has led to global industries seeking to reduce climate
change and to produce more sustainable products that will reduce global warming. The
renewable-generated energy storage and electrification of automotive mobility have led to an
increase in rapid demand and growth for the lithium-ion battery (LIB) market. Worldwide
demand for LIBs is expected in increase exponentially by 2030, where the amount of lithiumion battery capacity required is forecasted to grow to 6.5 TWh globally. As a result, this led to
the popularisation of personal mobility devices (PMD) and power-assisted bicycles (PAB),
which operate on LIBs. In the local context, many Singaporeans have purchased their own
PMDs and PABs as they are very budget-friendly modes of personal transportation.
Additionally, the food delivery market has benefitted greatly from the introduction of these
devices. The increased popularity of these devices led to the average consumer possibly
purchasing cheaper batteries and chargers for their devices. Coupled with the lack of
knowledge and guidance on charging their devices, this inadvertently led to an increasing
number of fires involving PMDs and PABs. These fires are particularly deadly and have caused
much damage to life and property. Many measures such as advising the public to be more
vigilant will work, but it can only go so far. Studying the effects of LIBs and eventually
implementing a safety measure to prevent the LIB from causing more damage would prove to
be vital for the future users. To this end, the use of a cell fire extinguisher (CFE) was evaluated
and implemented in smaller-scaled setups before they can be considered to be installed into
PMDs and PABs. The progress of this project will lead to future innovations that can help to
prevent battery fires from happening catastrophically. |
