A STUDY OF POLARIZATION AND ENERGY CONVERSION IN BIOLOGICAL FUEL CELLS
Abstract
A biochemical fuel cell is a fuel cell in which the reaction at either or both electrodes is enhanced by a biochemical agent. As early as 1912 Potter measured the production of electrical energy by growing yeast cultures in a half cell of an oxidation-reduction cell. Much work has been done since that time with special emphasis the last ten years being related principally to the space program. The use of yeast cultures as a fuel has been extensively studied recently by Konikoff, Reynolds and Harris.
