Just in time for Halloween, a Yale lab has identified a molecule that transports oxygen in blood that could pave the way for a new environmentally friendly way to produce batteries for cell phones, tablets and other electronic devices.
Andre Taylor, associate professor of chemical and environmental engineering at Yale University, has identified the molecule heme as a better catalyst to produce lithium-oxygen batteries, which has emerged in recent years as a successor to lithium-ion batteries because of their propensity to hold a charge for longer periods of time.
