Abstract
Systems and methods are described for an edible capacitive power source such as a supercapacitor device. The capacitive power source includes an anode electrode, an anode current collector, a cathode electrode, and a cathode current collector, arranged in layers with a separator layer positioned between the anode electrode and the cathode electrode forming a symmetrical electrical double-layer capacitor. The anode electrode, the anode current collector, the cathode electrode, the cathode current collector, and the separator layer are all constructed of non-toxic, edible materials. The packaging material, the conductive anode tab, and the conductive cathode tab are all also constructed of non-toxic, edible materials forming a completely edible capacitive power source package.
