    Bio Battery

    This document discusses bio batteries, which generate electricity from organic compounds like glucose. It describes two types - passive systems where substances diffuse into electrodes, and active systems where substances are introduced forcibly. The first bio battery was announced by Sony in 2007, using enzymes to generate power from carbohydrates. It works by using glucose to produce protons and electrons at the anode, which power the cathode via a separator and external circuit. Advantages include instant recharging through a constant sugar supply, while disadvantages include less long-term energy retention than lithium batteries.

    WHAT IS BIO
    BATTERY??

    A bio-battery is an energy storing device that


    is powered by organic compounds. Bio-
    Battery generates electricity from renewable
    fuels (glucose, sucrose, fructose, etc)
    providing a sustained, on-demand portable
    power source.
    TYPES OF BIO
    BATTERY
    PASSIVE SYSTEM TYPE
    A system in which reactive substances are absorbed in
    to the electrodes through a process of natural diffusion

    ACTIVE SYSTEM TYPE


    In this type reactive substances are introduced by
    force by some means
    FIRST BIO BATTERY

    On August 23, 2007 Sony announced the


    development of a bio battery that generates
    electrical energy from carbohydrates using
    enzymes as catalysts through the application of
    power generation principles used in living
    organisms.
    HOW IT WORKS
    •Between the anode and the cathode lies the electrolyte which
    contains a separator. The main function of the separator is to
    keep the cathode and anode separated, to avoid electrical
    short circuits. This system as a whole allows for a flow of
    protons (H+) and electrons (e-) which ultimately generate
    electricity.

    •Glucose is broken down on the anode side of the battery,


    producing protons (H+) and electrons (e-). The protons (H+)
    are transferred to the cathode side through the separator,
    while the electrons (e-) are transported to the cathode side
    through the mediator, which transfers them to the external
    circuit. The cathode uses the enzymes to drive an oxygen-
    reduction reaction which ultimately produces water using
    both the protons (H+) and the electrons (e-) transferred from
    the anode. These reactions at the anode and cathode generate

    CELL
    SPECIFICATIONS
    • Dimensions: 39*39*39 mm
    • Volume: 40 cc (without casing)
    • Max Output: 50 mW
    ADVANTAGES
    • A significant advantage that bio-batteries have in
    comparison to other batteries is their ability to allow
    an instant recharge. In other words through a
    constant supply of sugar, or glucose, bio batteries are
    able to continuously keep themselves charged without
    an external power supply with high fuel flexibility like
    sugar, alcohol, diesel, ethanol, blood etc
    DISADVANTAGES
    • Compared to conventional batteries, such as
    lithium batteries, bio batteries are less likely
    to retain their most of the energy.
    • This causes a problem when it comes to long
    term usage and storage of energy for these
    batteries.
    THANK YOU…
