COgITOR at ASME Conference in UK
We are glad to announce that our colleague Matteo Bevione will be speaking at the 7th ASME Micro/Nanoscale Heat and Mass Transfer International Conference next week in Nottingham, United Kingdom.
He’ll discuss new insights on Thermoelectrochemical cells (TEC) for energy harvesting, focusing on the main physical dependencies of the output power on using buffer solution and electrode separation.
The discussion will eventually extend to the synergy between photothermal nanomaterial and thermo-electrochemical responses, to create a Photo-Thermoelectrochemical cell (PTEC) extending the operability to sunlight.
This system has been developed with European Commission funding from program HORIZON 2020 in the project COgITOR, to demonstrate its potentialities to provide solution for the supply of low-power consumption systems, such as sensors for remote monitoring or harsh environment exploration.
