Electrochemical energy conversion is an important supplement for storage and on-demand use of renewable energy. In this regard, microfluidics offers prospects to raise the efficiency and rate of electrochemical energy conversion through enhanced mass transport, flexible cell design, and ability to eliminate the physical ion-exchange membrane, an essential yet costly element in conventional electrochemical cells. Since the 2002 invention of the microfluidic fuel cell, the research field of microfluidics for electrochemical energy conversion has expanded into a great variety of cell designs, fabrication techniques, and device functions with a wide range of utility and applications. The present review aims to comprehensively synthesize the best practices in this field over the past 20 years. The underlying fundamentals and research methods are first summarized, followed by a complete assessment of all research contributions wherein microfluidics was proactively utilized to facilitate energy conversion in conjunction with electrochemical cells, such as fuel cells, flow batteries, electrolysis cells, hybrid cells, and photoelectrochemical cells. Moreover, emerging technologies and analytical tools enabled by microfluidics are also discussed. Lastly, opportunities for future research directions and technology advances are proposed.

Herein, a membraneless paper based co‐laminar microfluidic Hydrazine‐Hydrogen peroxide fuel cell, employing graphite pencil electrode, is presented. Hydrogen peroxide has been used as oxidant while sulphuric acid and sodium hydroxide have been employed as electrolytes. The electrodes were formed by manual stroking of graphite pencils. Maximum power output was achieved by examining various combinations of different grades of graphite electrodes on a suitable filter paper with 100 pencil strokes. Here, maximum current density and power density of 14.43 μA/cm2 and 1.30 μW/cm2 respectively were achieved at a stable open circuit potential of 410 mV for 40 mM of hydrazine concentration.

“…N 2 H 4 is widely used as a starting material in the production of insecticides, herbicides, pesticides, dyestuffs, and explosives, as well as in the preparation of several pharmaceutical derivatives [16]. N 2 H 4 is also an ideal fuel for direct fuel cell systems, as its electrooxidation process does not suffer from any poisoning effects [17][18][19][20][21]. In addition, the maximum recommended level of hydrazine in trade effluents is 1 ppm [22]; therefore, a sensitive method is required for its reliable measurement.…”

There is a growing demand for simple, cost-effective, and accurate analytical tools to determine the concentrations of biological and environmental compounds. In this study, a stable electroactive thin film of cobalt hexacyanoferrate (Cohcf) was prepared as an in situ chemical precipitant using electrostatic adsorption of Co 2 + on a silicate sol-gel matrix (SSG)-modified indium tin oxide electrode pre-adsorbed with [Fe(CN) 6 ] 3 − ions. The modified electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electrochemical techniques. Electrocatalytic oxidation of hydrazine on the modified electrode was studied. An electrochemical sensor for hydrazine was constructed on the SSG-Cohcf-modified electrode. The oxidation peak currents showed a linear relationship with the hydrazine concentration. This study provides insight into the in situ growth and stability behavior of Cohcf nanostructures and has implications for the design and development of advanced electrode materials for fuel cells and sensor applications.
