An ecologically friendly cellphone for Nokia has been developed by designer Daizi Zheng that uses coke or any other sugary fluids as the source of power. It happens by converting the sugar into electricity and utilizes enzymes as the catalyst with the help of a bio battery. What’s great about this is it lasts three to four times longer on a single charge than your normal conventional lithium battery plus it is also fully biodegradable. So the next time that your cellphone battery dies out on you all you need is a can of coke.
