Abstract
- Water soluble biomimetic models of Riboflavin (B2 vitamin) and Folic acid (B8 vitamin) demonstrated to be good oxidant of formic acid at various pH. Their usage as anolyte mediators in a flow fuel cell to convert formic acid (or formate) into electricity is validated with measured power densities up to 16 mW.cm− 2. These preliminary optimum conditions demonstrated a volumetric energy density of 0.68 Wh.L− 1 when operating at 5 mA.cm− 2 and neutral pH. These new conditions inspired from redox flow batteries processes permit to remove noble metals at both sides of the formate flow fuel cell. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
