A
scientist has allegedly designed a stunning new kind of batteries that
can unbelievably power smartphones for several years at a time.
Vladislav Kiselev and his invention
Vladislav Kiselev is a Ukrainian scientist who has made a stunning new claim.
The man claims that he has developed a type of battery that can
power gadgets like smartphones and even cars for up to 12 years, without
having to be recharged.
According to Oddity Central, Kiselev, a senior researcher at the
Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry and Petrochemistry in Kiev, and
professor at Ukraine’s National Academy of Sciences, unveiled his
intriguing battery prototype during the 2016 edition of Sikorsky
Challenge, a prestigious international competition for research
projects.
The matchbox-like device looks fairly unimpressive, but the
Ukrainian scientist claims that it has been continuously powering
electrical devices for a year and four months without a single recharge,
and will continue to do so for the next 11 years. That’s because his
“battery” produces energy instead of simply storing it.
But with virtually all the world’s battery manufacturers and
researchers struggling to come up with a real breakthrough in battery
technology, how did Kiselev create one that he claims lasts for 12
years?
The battery
The senior researcher says he was able to do it by taking advantage
of a key property of tritium – the ability to emit electrons. He adds
that American company City Labs also makes use of the radioactive
isotope of hydrogen, but whereas they use tritium-covered solar cells,
he opted for an enhanced electrochemical cells, which makes the battery
1,000 times more powerful.
So whereas City Labs NanoTritium™ batteries provide low power to
devices like medical implants and various sensors, Kiselev’s version can
be used to power large electronic devices and even cars.
The scientist adds that electrochemical cells similar to the one he
uses in his battery have been used in Ukraine since the 1930s, but no
one has ever been able to use them for energy generation. He and his
team were able to improve the design in order to achieve this.
Interestingly enough, Kiselev says that after failing to secure
research grants for the project, he and his colleagues funded
themselves. Now, after presenting the results of their labor at Sikorsky
Challenge, Kiselev says that he is in talks with both Turkish and
Chinese businessmen to produce a version of his tritium battery that can
be used in mobile phones.
Regarding the radioactive properties of tritium, Vladislav Kiselev
emphasized the fact that some radioactive substances are not hazardous
to humans, and tritium is one of them. It is actually used as a
radioluminescent light source in wristwatches.
Kiselev believes that tritium is the future of energy, and claims
that the fact that 11 of the world’s most advanced countries are
planning to build an international fusion reactor – also based on
tritium – to produce energy is proof of that. However, he adds that
while such reactors cost tens of billions of dollars to build, his
tritium batteries are an affordable way to produce energy for up to 12
years.
