Electrochemical Systems

Provides the basis for many technologically important applications, such as batteries and fuel cells, production of metals and chemicals, fabrication of electronic materials, and operation of sensors, including those regulating the air/fuel ratio in automobile engines. In biological systems, drug delivery and nerve action can be electrochemical.
