INTRODUCTION
 Our life style is completely dependent on electricity.
 Scarcity of electric energy is not so far.
 We have to think of new methods for generation of electricity for different
purposes.
 Researches proved that sweat can be used to produce electricity

HISTORY
 It is one of the newly developed technology.
 Researchers from University of California & American Chemical Society is
working on power generation from sweat.
 Joseph Wang presented the idea, in the 248th National Conference of American
Chemical society.
 With the help of an enzyme they generated power from human perspiration.
6
LITERATURE REVIEW
Batteries produce energy by passing current and the ability to generate electrical
power from human perspiration through the use of epidermal tattoo bio-fuel
cells.(Angewante Chemie- Dr. W. Jia and et all).
7
BASIC PRINCIPLE
 It works on the principle of harnessing the electrons, during lactate
oxidation, in an enzyme mediated reaction.
8
COMPONENTS
 A simple tattoo
 Lactase oxidase enzyme at
anode.
 Platinum black at cathode.
9
CONSTRUCTION
TATTOO TYPE:
 Carbon forms the base for the
tattoo.
 Anode is a matrix of TTF-LOx-
Chitosan.
 Cathode consist of platinum black
coated with Nafion layer.
10
WORKING
 During intense physical activity, sweat gland produce sweat , which contain
lactate.
 Lactate is oxidized by LOx .
 TTF(tetra thio fulvalene) is employed to promote low potential oxidation.
 Chitosan layer above LOx prevents its efflux.
 Nafion layer prevents direct platinum skin contact .
 The resulting electron flow is exploited to produce electricity, by means of anode
and cathode provided.
 Energy can be extracted by means of 2 leads  one at anode and other at cathode ,
connected to a battery.
11
Biological reaction
12
MERITS
 Mobile phones can be charged while doing exercise.
 External power supply is not required .
 Does not cause skin irritation.
 Conventional energy sources can be preserved.
 Tiny, temporary, removable, external, inexpensive.
 Safer renewable source- no leakage of toxic chemicals
13
DEMERITS
 Elasticity against mechanical stress and strain.
 Possible for low voltage application only.
 Lots of work is to be done in this field.
14
APPLICATIONS
 Recharge mobile phone by
tapping into the energy from
perspiration.
 Implementing as wrist
bands & head bands
15
FUTURE ASPECTS
 We can hope for a more efficient production of power from artificially produced
sweat.
 It will cause revolution in the field of the renewable sources.
16
CONCLUSION
 Power from human perspiration creates a new era with saving electricity.
 A lot of research is to be done in this field.
