According to the Office of Naval Research the microbial fuel cell could revolutionize naval energy use by converting decomposed marine organisms into electricity. By converting naturally occurring fuels and oxidants in the marine environment into electricity, Naval vessels could be running on a clean and efficient reliable alternative battery avoiding the harmful impact that standard batteries and fuels have upon the marine environment.

Navy develops battery that runs on mud

According to Peter Vietti of the Office of Naval Research the microbial fuel cell is a device “that could revolutionize naval energy use by converting decomposed marine organisms into electricity.” By converting naturally occurring fuels and oxidants in the marine environment into electricity, Naval vessels could be running on a clean and efficient reliable alternative battery avoiding the harmful impact that standard batteries and fuels have upon the marine environment.
