Electrochemical cells that draw oxygen from the air to oxidize a metal such as zinc, including zinc-air cells and the wider metal-air family. A technology belongs here when its cited article describes a metal-air cell. In these cells the oxygen in the air is the oxidant and a metal such as zinc or aluminium is the fuel, which is why they store a great deal of energy for their weight. A technology is placed here by the metal-air design the cited article describes.
