Enzymatic fuel cells using biological redox molecules now enable moderate-temperature power without harsh, corrosive chemicals.
The technology uses enzymes to catalyze biological redox reactions between fuel and oxidant, generating an electrical current inside a fuel-cell structure. It targets moderate operating temperatures rather than high-heat operation typical of conventional fuel cells, reducing corrosion risk at the cell components. What used to require licensing and proprietary enzyme-cell designs can now be built by anyone using the disclosed chemistry and architecture.
Launch portable off-grid devices and indoor micro-power systems using enzyme-based enzymatic fuel cells with moderate-temperature operation.
The present invention provides a fuel cell technology that employs molecules used in biological processes to create fuel cells that operate at moderate temperatures and without the presence of harsh chemicals maintained at high temperatures, which can lead to corrosion of the cell components.
