Coca Cola phone – eco friendly gadget

Chinese designer Daizi Zheng created a concept phone running on… (what do you think on what?)… on Coca-Cola! The idea is that instead of a usual lithium battery the gadget uses the popular drink.

Well, such environmentally-friendly aspirations (or creative advertising) of famous manufacturers can really make us smile. This time it was the Nokia Company that took the stage. The company has designed an ecologically-friendly phone without a lithium battery that is quite a toxic and dangerous piece that even can lead to explosion. As an alternative the designer has offered to use Coca-Cola as you already know or any other sweet soft drink.

The gadget looks like a cylinder with a fuel tank, liquid reservoir and such conventional phone attributes as display and keyboard. The fuel element generates energy from carbohydrates that basically are sugar in drinks. This process is absolutely environmentally safe. The resulting elements are only oxygen and water. What is more, Daizi Zheng claims that the drink fuel can make phone run 3-4 times longer than traditional batteries.

The question is that whether a Coca-Cola phone is that ecologically-friendly as we don’t know how the Coca-Cola or any other soft drink production influences on environment.

Meanwhile, Coca-Cola phone is just a concept and it’s unknown whether it will have a commercial future.
