Abstract
The energy converter utilizes the products of radiolysis of an aqueous solution of an oxidation-reduction pair and comprises a leak-tight jacket initially filled with a pure gas which is identical with the gas evolved as a result of radiolysis. A porous electrode impregnated with the aqueous solution of the oxidation-reduction pair and specific to the reaction of this latter is placed within the jacket. The converter also comprises a gas electrode which is specific to the gas evolved as a result of radiolysis, a porous diaphragm for effecting the ionic junction between the two electrodes by gas/liquid surface conductivity and means for connecting the electrodes to an external circuit.
