Australian researchers have uncovered an enzyme capable of transforming air into energy. The enzyme Huc utilizes small amounts of hydrogen in the air to generate an electrical current.
Huc is a “natural battery” that produces a sustained electrical current from air or added hydrogen. While this research is at an early stage, the discovery of Huc has considerable potential to develop small air-powered devices, for example as an alternative to solar-powered devices.
