In March 2013, Phinergy [5] released a video demonstration of an electric car using aluminium–air cells driven 330 km using a special cathode and potassium hydroxide. [6] On May 27, 2013, the Israeli channel 10 evening news broadcast showed a car with Phinergy battery in the back, claiming 2,000 kilometres (1,200 mi) range before replacement ...
The zinc–air cell is a primary cell (non-rechargeable); recycling is required to reclaim the zinc; much more energy is required to reclaim the zinc than is usable in a vehicle. An advantage of utilizing zinc–air batteries for vehicle propulsion is the mineral's relative abundance when compared to lithium.
A primitive cell is a unit cell that contains exactly one lattice point. For unit cells generally, lattice points that are shared by n cells are counted as 1 / n of the lattice points contained in each of those cells; so for example a primitive unit cell in three dimensions which has lattice points only at its eight vertices is considered to contain 1 / 8 of each of them.

A metal–air electrochemical cell is an electrochemical cell that uses an anode made from pure metal and an external cathode of ambient air, typically with an aqueous or aprotic electrolyte. [1] [2] During discharging of a metal–air electrochemical cell, a reduction reaction occurs in the ambient air cathode while the metal anode is oxidized.
A variety of standard sizes of primary cells. From left: 4.5V multicell battery, D, C, AA, AAA, AAAA, A23, 9V multicell battery, (top) LR44, (bottom) CR2032 A primary battery or primary cell is a battery (a galvanic cell) that is designed to be used once and discarded, and it is not rechargeable unlike a secondary cell (rechargeable battery).
A Type 212 submarine of the German Navy, equipped with a fuel-cell AIP. A diagram of the fuel-cell AIP module developed by the DRDO of India. Siemens has developed a 30–50 kilowatt fuel cell unit, a device that converts the chemical energy from a fuel and oxidiser into electricity. Fuel cells differ from batteries in that they require a ...
Silver zinc cells share most of the characteristics of the silver-oxide battery, and in addition, is able to deliver one of the highest specific energies of all presently known electrochemical power sources. Long used in specialized applications, it is now being developed for more mainstream markets, for example, batteries in laptops and ...
Air cell or aircel may refer to: Air cell, a prechamber in an Indirect injection internal combustion engine; An electrochemical cell that uses air as a terminal, such as the metal-air electrochemical cell; Using cell phones on aircraft; see mobile phones on aircraft; Mastoid cells, also known as mastoid air cells or air cells, spaces in a bone ...
