 HISTORY :
• The first enzyme-based bio-fuel cell was
reported only in 1964 using glucose
oxidize (GOx) as the anodic catalyst and
glucose as the bio-fuel.

• Even though the Bio fuel cells have been

known for almost a century since the
first microbial BFC(Bio fuel cells) was
demonstrated in 1912.

• biological processes can be used to

generate electricity for powering
electrical equipment. Bacteria that produces electricity
PRESENT :

• Besides bio fuel energies ,Presently we are using

many types of energies.
• Namely wind energy , solar energies , thermal
energies.
• In different technologies we use diff types of
batteries namely Lithium cadmium battery,
Nickel battery etc.
• Though we have many types of Batteries “BIO
BATTERY” has many advantages over other and
is also 100% eco friendly.
NOW WE PRESENT A NEW ERA OF
ENERGY GENERATION….BIO BATTERY
 BIO BATTERY

A bio-battery is an energy storage

device that is powered by organic
compounds usually being glucose
such as glucose in human blood.
INTRODUCTION
• Bio-Battery generates electricity from renewable fuels (glucose,
sucrose, fructose, etc ) providing a sustained, on-demand portable
power source.
• When enzymes in our bodies break down glucose, several
electrons and protons are released.
• Therefore, by using enzymes to breakdown glucose, bio-batteries
directly receive energy from glucose.
• These batteries then store this energy for later use.
• Bio battery use biocatalyst, either biomolecules such as enzymes or
even whole living organism to catalyze oxidation of bio mass-based
materials for generating electrical energy.
 PRINCIPLE OF BIO BATTERY
• A Bio-Battery battery consists of two different
metals suspended in an acidic solution.
• They contain an anode, cathode, separator and
electrolyte, which are the basic components to
any cell battery.
• Each component is layered on top of another
component. Anodes and cathodes are the
negative and positive areas on a battery.
• The anode is located at the top of the battery and
the cathode is located at the bottom of the
battery.
• Anodes are components that allow electrons to
flow in from outside the battery, whereas
cathodes are devices that allow current to flow
out from the battery.
MECHANISM OF BIO BATTERY
 GLUCOSE:

• Bio batteries are heavily based on the amount

of glucose available.
• This glucose (sugar) can be provided from
nearly anything, including soda, waste
materials or the glucose in living organisms.
• The decomposition of materials to glucose is
the main step in getting the cycle started.
• Once glucose is present, oxygen and other
enzymes can act on it to further produce
protons and electrons.
WORKING OF BIO BATTERY :

• Glucose is broken down on the

anode side of the battery producing
protons (H+) and electrons (e-).
• The protons (H+)are transferred to
the cathode side through the
separator, while the electrons (e-)
are transported to the cathode side
through the mediator, which
transfers them to the external
circuit.
• The cathode uses the enzymes to
drive oxygen-reduction reaction
which ultimately produces water
using both the protons (H+) and the
electrons (e-) transferred from the
anode.
• These reactions at the anode and
cathode generate electric energy by
creating proton (H+) and electron (e-
) flow in the cell system.
• Glucose → Gluconolacton+2H+ + 2e−
• Between the anode and the cathode lies
the electrolyte which contains a separator.
• The main function of the separator is to
keep the cathode and anode separated,
to avoid electrical short circuits.
• This system as a whole allows for a flow
of protons(H+) and electrons (e-) which
ultimately generate electricity.
• The movement of protons has a moving
force that pushes, this movement is
called current. When this moving force
(current) is measured.
 NEED OF BIO-BATTERY
• An electricity shortage is felt most by those who depend on electricity for
heating, cooking, and water supply.
• In these circumstances, a sustained energy crisis may become a humanitarian crisis.
• As it is known that the energy conservation is the major issue these times so the bio-
battery is one of the energy conservation method.
• It can save a lot of power and it is also energy efficient phenomenon.
• Bio-Battery is a renewable energy source which is again the major requirement of
current energy system.

 DISADVANTAGES:

 Compared to conventional batteries, such as lithium

batteries, bio-batteries are less likely to retain most of
their energy.
 This causes a problem when it comes to long term
usage and storage of energy for these batteries.
 However, researchers are continuing to develop the
battery in order to make it a more practical
replacement for current batteries and sources of
energy.
FUTURE SCOPE
 Bio-batteries have a very bright future ahead of them as test
productions and research have been increasing over recent
years.
 They serve as a new form of energy that is proving to be
environmentally friendly, as well as successful, in producing and
reserving energy.
 Although the batteries are still being tested before being
commercially sold, several research teams and engineers are
working to further advance the development of these batteries.
WE CAN imagine using a
bottle of Coke to recharge
batteries in the future
although we would still
prefer solar Powered
chargers as you can't really
find a bottle of Coke
everywhere, but the sun is
there always
CONCLUSION

 The Bio batteries are High performing, stable.

 Even so, Bio battery the small, flexible, long lasting and
environmentally friendly battery technologies discussed here
show the great possibilities researchers see in bio-batteries,
especially for the field of medicine.
 This causes a problem when it comes to long term usage and
storage of energy for these batteries. However, researchers are
continuing to develop the battery in order to make it a more
practical replacement for current batteries and sources of
energy.
