Aluminum Air Battery

1. Aluminium –Air Battery
Name –Gajendra padhiari

2.  Battery is a power source ,which work
like a transducer that convert
chemical energy into electrical energy.
 It contains
• An anode (source)
• A cathode(sink)
• An electrolyte (the separation of ionic
transport and electronic transport)
BATTERY

3. Primary (non-rechargeable)
Example -
Alkaline Batteries
Mercury (Zn/HgO)
Magnesium (Mg/MnO2)
Secondary (rechargeable)
Example-
Lead – Acid Batteries
Nickel – Cadmium Batteries
Nickel – Metal Hydride Batteries
Lithium – Ion Batteries
TYPES OF BATTERYS

4. ALLUMINIUM – AIR BATTERY
Construction –
 aluminium foil (anode)
 salt water ( electrolyte)
 activated charcoal(cathode)
(to construct a simple battery
strong enough to power a small
motor or light) to power a small motor or
light. motor or light.

6. Activated charcoal -
Activated charcoal, which is mostly made of
carbon, can conduct electricity and is non-reactive.
It provides a highly porous surface that is exposed
to oxygen in the air.
One gram of activated charcoal can have more
internal surface area than an entire basketball
court! This surface provides a large number of sites
to which oxygen can bind and participate in the
cathode reaction…

charcoal..
----------------------GRAPHENE –-----------------------
 Graphene is an allotrope of carbon consisting of a
single layer of atoms arranged in a two-
dimensional honeycomb lattice nanostructure.
 The name is derived from "graphite" and the suffix
-ene, reflecting the fact that the graphite
allotrope of carbon contains numerous double
bonds…
 Sulfuric Acid Intercalated Graphite Oxide for
Graphene Preparation..

lithium ion battery aluminium air battery
IF a bus that weighs 10 tonnes is electrified through
lithium-ion tech, it’ll need battery packs that further add
2-2.5 tonnes of weight and even so it would have a range of
about 100 km.
On the other hand, since energy per kg in aluminium fuel
cells is about 7-8 times more – in the same 1.5-2 tonnes,
aluminium fuel cells can promise a range of about 500-600
km.
Furthermore, aluminium plate replacement would take
minutes compared to hours of charging time for lithium-ion
batteries..
