Nanotech energy using pure carbon and some fuel
April 12th, 2010 — Posted in Science — no comments
What if carbon itself could become an ignition cylinder for fuel to generate energy? Well, it can. Researchers have create tiny carbon nanotubes which are filled with fuel and ignited. The flame shockwave emits electrons which in turn means electricity. Researchers say this technology—even at an unengineered stage—is ten times more efficient than your basic lithium-ion batteries. Interesting indeed.
