Lead Acid Battery Life Extension through Viral Injection
Abstract
The primary objective of this project is to develop a phage-based approach in combination with the Pulse technology to recover failing lead-acid batteries and extend the life of lead-acid batteries. The research project is proposed to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Engineering Research and Development Center (ERDC) at the Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (CERL) in Champaign, Illinois. The Recipients specific stated objectives are: develop a phage-based approach for restoration of “dead” lead-acid battery, integrate the phage-based technology with the Pulse technology to recover failing lead-acid battery, and demonstrate the prototype at CERL.
