Sony has announced that it managed to come up with a battery powered by paper.
The batteries developed by the Japanese tech giant make use of enzymes in order to break down the glucose found in the cellulose of the paper (which by the way is made of wood pulp fibers).
During an experiment the paper was placed into a mix of water and enzymes. After a couple of minutes the liquid started generating enough power to activate a small fan.After enzymes broke down the paper, they were left with sugar that was produced from cellulose. Then they were able to process the sugar to produce hydrogen ions and electrons. The latter then went through an outer circuit to produce power. Mixed with oxygen in the air, the hydrogen ions were then able to create H2O.
