摘要:
An electrochemical cell is provided which has a liquid anode. Preferably the liquid anode comprises molten salt and a fuel, which preferably has a significant elemental carbon content. The supply of fuel is preferably continuously replenished in the anode. Where the fuel contains or pyrolizes to elemental carbon, the reaction C+2O2−→CO2+4e− may occur at the anode. The electrochemical cell preferably has a solid electrolyte, which may be yttrium stabilized zirconia (YSZ). The electrolyte is connected to a solid or liquid cathode, which is given a supply of an oxidizer such as air. An ion such as O2− passes through the electrolyte. If O2− passes through the electrolyte from the anode to the cathode, a possible reaction at the cathode may be O2+4e−→2O2−. The electrochemical cell of the invention is preferably operated as a fuel cell, consuming fuel and producing electrical current.

The invention offers the ability to rapidly synthesize multiple chemical compounds, particularly polymers of varying sequences, in parallel on the surfaces of carrier beads. Tinvention involves attaching up-converting phosphors (UCP's) to beads to create up-converting phosphor-loaded beads (UCP-loaded beads) with unique spectral characteristics. Using a dynamic sorting architecture each bead is cataloged based on its spectral characteristics, assigned a compound or polymer to be synthesized, and subjected to multiple rounds of sorting by a flow cytometer, wherein each round sorts the bead to an appropriate bin for a selected chemical reaction, such as the attachment of a monomeric subunit of the polymer sequence.
