The electrochemical oxidation of various polyhydric alcohols, ethylene glycol, glycerol, meso-erythoritol, ande xylitol, on a platinum electrode was investigated systematically in acidic H2SO4 and in alkaline KOH and K2CO3 solutions to evaluate the potential of these polyhydric alcohols as fuels in micro-fuel cells for portable electronic devices.
