САЖЕТАК / ABSTRACT:
The increasingly frequent improper disposal of lithium-ion batteries (LIB) is leading to concerns about the environmental consequences. When they are poured out, the flammable solvents from the electrolytes in LIBs are the threatening soil and plant contamination. If these liquids spill or leak from batteries, they could enter the soil through various pathways and contaminate crops such as cucumber and tomato plants, which have extensive root systems that may facilitate the absorption of ILs. After absorption, some electrolyte components could accumulate inside the plants and have toxic effects, potentially harming plant growth and crop fields. This study investigated how spilling electrolytes with varying combinations of ILs, organic solvents, and lithium salts in different concentrations affects the growth and development of tomatoes and cucumbers. Special attention was paid to examining the influence of electrolyte components on aerial parts and/or fruits of these plants and the levels of metabolites involved in antioxidant protection under stressful conditions, such as malonyldialdehyde (MDA). In this work, certain ILs with bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, NTf2, anion have a phytotoxic effect, which negatively affects cucumber and tomato growth and development.
