A solvent-free microbial-activated air cathode battery paper platform made with pencil-traced graphite electrodes
We present the fabrication of an ultra-low cost, disposable, solvent-free air cathode all-paper microbial fuel cell (MFC) that does not utilize any chemical treatments. The anode and cathode were fabricated by depositing graphite particles by drawing them on paper with a pencil (four strokes). Hydrophobic parchment paper was used as a proton exchange membrane (PEM) to allow only H(+) to pass. A...
متن کاملPaper-based Microfluidic Fuel Cells
This work presents a paper-based membraneless microfluidic fuel cell. The device benefits from the laminar flow occurring in a porous material by capillarity to separately react with two parallel streams, anolyte and catholyte, without a separating membrane. Unlike conventional microfluidic fuel cells, the present device does not require external pumps or any other ancillary devices to operate,...
متن کاملPencil Graphite Electrodes: A Versatile Tool in Electroanalysis
Due to their electrochemical and economical characteristics, pencil graphite electrodes (PGEs) gained in recent years a large applicability to the analysis of various types of inorganic and organic compounds from very different matrices. The electrode material of this type of working electrodes is constituted by the well-known and easy commercially available graphite pencil leads. Thus, PGEs ar...
متن کاملHydrogenase electrodes for fuel cells.
Considering crucial problems that limit use of platinum-based fuel cells, i.e. cost and availability, poisoning by fuel impurities and low selectivity, we propose electrocatalysis by enzymes as a valuable alternative to noble metals. Hydrogenase electrodes in neutral media achieve hydrogen equilibrium potential (providing 100% energy conversion), and display high activity in H(2) electrooxidati...
متن کاملQuantum dot (QD)-modified carbon tape electrodes for reproducible electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emission on a paper-based platform.
Stable and sensitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detection relies on successful immobilization of quantum dots (QDs) on working electrodes. Herein, we report a new technique to apply double-sided carbon adhesive tape as the working electrode to improve the stability and reproducibility of QD-based ECL emission. CdS QD-modified electrodes were prepared by dropping and drying CdS QD suspension...
