Silicon-Air Battery By: Danielle Gonzales Itmg 100 07 11-12-2013
Background The Silicon-Air Battery is created from oxygen and silicon. These batteries are lightweight have thousands of hours of life have a high tolerance for both humid and tremendously dry weather The Silicon-Air Battery performs all tasks that all other batteries can accomplish, but with more energy efficiency.
Environment • created by Oxygen and Silicon • Luckily, Silicon is the second most plentiful element in the earth’s crust. • The Silicon-Air battery’s advanced features of long lasting power and ingredients allow society to be more environmental friendly Why to be concerned about the Environment?
Technology Uses • Convenience to consumers (Size) • As the battery upgrades to a more powerful source of energy, there are many new and efficient uses for it. • Ex: Hearing Aids that last longer
Future Technology upgrading this new battery = energy use that will become far more efficient in a way that it will be more powerful and will be able to perform more advanced technological services for society. Ex: Electric Cars The use of electric cars will become more efficient: gasoline fueled cars because gasoline resources are becoming scarce daily the resources for the Silicon-Air Battery remain plentiful and easy to recycle
Significance The Silicon-Air battery • supports a clean and healthy environment • use of technology to be more efficient and advanced due to its long lasting battery life. • this battery may upgrade to a high powered energy source that positively contributes to future technology • This new technology provides a new source of energy that our society needs and will utilize to its full extent. Energy for the Future?
