Sugar can generate electricity that can power Smartphones for 10 days
- Scientists have developed a bio-battery that uses sugar to produce electricity that can power a Smartphone for 10 days.
- Output per weight of the battery is more than the commonly used lithium ion batteries.
- These batteries don’t need metal or chemicals to operate unlike common batteries and requires just bio-materials which are non toxic.
- The principle involved in the conversion of energy is same as our body metabolism and enzymes provide much required efficiency to batteries.
