If you are interested in our project, spread the word about our project and join our IPRO team next An improvement in transportation is a benefit to all!
This IPRO is designing, building, and testing electric vehicles powered by zinc-air fuel cells (ZAFCs). The majority of electric and hybrid vehicles produced commercially are powered with lithium ion batteries or nickel-metal hydride batteries. The research community is currently intrigued about hydrogen fuel cells and super-capacitors. The team at IIT chooses to explore an alternative to both, ZA

Zinc-air's competition just got stiffer
Engineers boost capacity and charge rate of lithium-ion batteries by 1000 percent Knovel is a web-based application integrating technical information with analytical and search tools to drive innovation and deliver answers engineers can trust.
Make sure you register for the next semester's IPRO 313 "Refuelable Electric Car" class on time! :)
