The cathode consists of a compound that can reversibly embed/de-embed Mg 2+, and the anode consists of Mg metal or Mg alloy. The reaction mechanism of a rechargeable magnesium battery is as follows: In the discharge (Fig. 4 A), Mg 2+ are released from the anode, typically composed of Mg metal, and migrate through the electrolyte to the cathode.
Magnesium batteries are batteries that utilize magnesium cations as charge carriers and possibly in the anode in electrochemical cells. Both non-rechargeable primary cell and rechargeable secondary cell chemistries have been investigated.
The magnesium–air battery is a primary cell, but has the potential to be 'refuelable' by replacement of the anode and electrolyte. Some primary magnesium batteries find use as land-based backup systems as well as undersea power sources, using seawater as the electrolyte.
Nonetheless, The progression of magnesium battery technology faces hindrances from the creation of a passivated film at the interface between the magnesium anode and electrolyte, along with the slow diffusion kinetics of Mg 2+.
Electrolytes based on imide salts and magnesium chloride have also been documented for use in rechargeable magnesium batteries . Surprisingly, the Mg-Cl complex showed no significant involvement in the electrochemical processes, whereas the μ-complex demonstrated active participation.
A magnesium–air battery has a theoretical operating voltage of 3.1 V and energy density of 6.8 kWh/kg. General Electric produced a magnesium–air battery operating in neutral NaCl solution as early as the 1960s. The magnesium–air battery is a primary cell, but has the potential to be 'refuelable' by replacement of the anode and electrolyte.

The Aluminum-Ion Battery: A Sustainable and Seminal Concept?
In order to create an aluminum battery with a substantially higher energy density than a lithium-ion battery, the full reversible transfer of three electrons between Al 3+ and a single positive electrode metal center (as in an aluminum-ion battery) as well as a high operating voltage and long cycling life is required (Muldoon et al., 2014). This has however, not been reported to date.
