摘要
(Figure Presented)Carnot versus electrochemistry: This essay critically compares the advantages and disadvantages of Carnot-cycle-based and electrochemical methods for the generation and storage of energy (see picture; left: PEM fuel cell; right: Au(III) model surface covered with 0.025 monolayers of Pt). The views of Wilhelm Ostwald (1853-1932) and today's understanding of energy conversion are contrasted. © 2009 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
