Proof-of-Concept of a Zinc-Silver Battery for the Extraction of Energy from a Concentration Difference

The conversion of heat into current can be obtained by a process with two stages. In the first one, the heat is used for distilling a solution and obtaining two flows with different concentrations. In the second stage, the two flows are sent to an electrochemical cell that produces current by consum...
