Fuel Cells

RESEARCH

Nanotubes crank up microbe power

Coat carbon nanotubes with platinum nanoparticles, add water, and you've got the key component of a microbial fuel cell that generates six times the power of previous microbial fuel cells. [more]

RESEARCH

Pressure pumps up microbe power

Increase the pressure in a microbial fuel cell slightly and you can significantly boost the power it produces. [more]

RESEARCH

Sugar powers bio battery

Stick sugar-busting enzymes on a fuel-cell electrode in a way that keeps the enzymes working and you have a simple battery-like biofuel power source. [more]
