  Hard to believe ? Yeah right ! Our next range of smartphone batteries and also for tablets will be 

  powered by "Pomegranate" a fruit . 

  Designed like a pomegranate - with silicon nanoparticles clustered like seeds in a tough carbon rind , the electrode 

   

  will overcome obstacles for the lithium ion battery to perform.

   

   

  The battery size will be more compact and small and the electrode can operate at 97 percent

  capacity even after 1,000 cycles of charging and discharging .

   

  To prevent blasting of the battery a technique common in the oil, paint and cosmetic industries

  to gather silicon yolk shells into clusters. 

   

  Also rice husks could be used in this technology and could be transformed into pure silicon nano particles .
