Thermo-electrochemical Cells
A redox reaction is the key to making a battery and generating electricity in our devices. Different pairs of redox couples might require different conditions to react. Scientists in the topical field of electrochemistry are working toward finding the alternatives to resolve our energy crisis. The application of redox experiment includes harvesting wasted heat and transferring it into electricity as some redox reactions are heat dependent. The redox experiment that uses heat is called thermoelectricity.
Module 2: Thermo-electrochemical cells: Sustainable Production of Energy
This Module is divided into two tasks. Task 1 reviews redox reactions and Task 2 involves a thermoelectricity experiment.
The lab extension is used to keep the record of thermoelectricity experiment followed by comprehensive questions that require critical thinking and in-depth understanding of thermoelectricity experiment.
Module 3: Thermoelectricity Technology
With an endless dedication to contributing to their field and further improving the daily life use of energy, scientists such as Dr.Madeleine Duport are an inspiration to students who want to pursue science. They are the living evidence of endless possibilities we could achieve through science.
