Re: zinc-air fuell cells
I would recommend that you do some web searching on "zinc air batteries" and/or "zinc air fuel cells" as a start. Given that your target environment does not have atmospheric oxygen, you will have to take this into account. One starting place for a quick understanding of the chemistry involved is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc-air_battery
