Construction of rechargeable bio-battery cells from electroactive antioxidants extracted from wasted vegetables
This work is focused on energy harvesting and energy storage through renewable sources. In many cases, vegetables may either get rotted or the market gets full due to imbalance in supply, price and demand. The waste vegetables and wild plants contain electrochemically active compounds, which can be...

This work is focused on energy harvesting and energy storage through renewable sources.

In this study, a set of battery cells was constructed by coupling the electroactive compounds of Onion-Radish, Onion-Bitter Orange, Onion-Cactus, Turnip-Radish, Turnip-bitter orange and Turnip-cactus.
