Thermal electrochemical cell

摘要

Technologies are generally described for methods and systems for implementing a thermal electrochemical cell. Some example electrochemical cells described herein may comprise a first container including a first electrode and an electrolyte effective to receive electrons from the first electrode. Some electrochemical cells may further comprise a second container including a second electrode and an aqueous suspension including zinc oxide nanoparticles. Some electrochemical cells may also further comprise a contact member in between the first container and the second container.
