About
BioPower Cells present a revolutionary, sustainable battery made from bio-waste, eliminating the need for rare earth minerals. These green batteries are safe, fully recyclable, and can be repurposed as fertiliser. Designed for diverse applications, they are modular, scalable, and support zero-carbon manufacturing. Unlike traditional batteries, which are environmentally harmful and costly to recycle, BioPower Cells align with circular economy principles, offering a low-cost, eco-friendly alternative that meets global energy demands without compromising performance or sustainability

Aldrei Zyv Bismilla
Northumbria University
I am AZ Bismilla, a recent mechanical engineering graduate at Northumbria University. During my time at Northumbria, I was able to meet my supervisor through my internship as an assistant researcher and had the pleasure to research the sustainability issues surrounding energy storage whereby it has led to the development of this project which aims to provide a sustainable alternative to conventional batteries via providing an alternative route to battery disposal.
