Temat: A Car Powered By Zinc?
APET, a small Taiwanese company, says forget lithium. Zinc is where it’s at.FRANKFURT, Germany -- It's a very long shot, but someday there may be cars and buses whose main chemical byproduct is sunscreen.
APET, or Advanced Power and Energy Sources Transportation, is touting the idea of using a zinc-air fuel cell to power vehicles. Oxygen and water would be mixed with zinc in a fuel cell stack to produce electrons to charge a battery. The main byproduct of the reaction would be zinc oxide, which could then be converted back into zinc fuel or sold as a chemical. Converting zinc oxide back to zinc could be accomplished with solar thermal concentrators.
