US-based researchers have developed a rechargeable battery called a flow cell that can be recharged with waste carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted from fossil fuel power plants. The device works by taking advantage of the difference in CO2 concentrations between the surrounding air and captured emissions. Initial tests showed that the cell can maintain its performance for over 50 recharge cycles.
