Microbial battery for efficient energy recovery.
By harnessing the oxidative power of microorganisms, energy can be recovered from reservoirs of less-concentrated organic matter, such as marine sediment, wastewater, and waste biomass. Left unmanaged, these reservoirs can become eutrophic dead zones and sites of greenhouse gas generation. Here, we introduce a unique means of energy recovery from these reservoirs-a microbial battery (MB) consis...
متن کاملEnergy Efficient Battery Management
A challenging aspect of mobile communications consists in exploring ways in which the available run time of the terminals can be maximized. In this paper we investigate battery management techniques that can dramatically improve the energy efficiency of radio communication devices. We consider an array of electrochemical cells connected in parallel. Through simple scheduling algorithms the disc...
متن کاملModeling and Efficient Control of Microturbine Generation System With Battery Energy Storage for Sensitive Loads
Microturbine generation system is one of the most promising and a fast growing distributed generation sources. It is used in various applications thanks to high efficiency, quick start and high reliability. Combination of the microturbine and storage system (e.g. battery bank) is desirable selection to satisfy the load requirements under all conditions and hence the battery bank can play an imp...
متن کاملPhotoelectrochemical batteries for efficient energy recovery.
Herein we propose novel photoelectrochemical fuel cells (PEFCs) by the introduction of a solid-state Ag2O/Ag cathode (here also term as photoelectrochemical battery). Due to the superior electrochemical properties of Ag2O/Ag, the maximum power density of our PEFCs can reach 0.94 mW cm(-2) upon UV illumination. Furthermore, our PEFCs have stable cycle operation and can be undertaken in a single ...
متن کاملEfficient Energy Recovery Logic: Study and Implementation
Power consumption is an increasing concern in VLSI circuits. To meet the energy requirements new logic circuits have been developed alternatively to standard CMOS. The so-called adiabatic families reduce energy consumption due to the use of a pulsed power supply. A slowly varying voltage source requires less energy to charge a capacitance if its period is longer than the time constant of the ch...
