Today’s energy industry is currently facing an increasing demand for electricity. Besides to the use of coal, oil and gas, in recent years renewable energy sources have also are used. One of devices using renewable energy sources is fuel cell (FC). The most commonly used fuel for fuel cells is hydrogen. But, problems with storage of this fuel causes, that the finding new fuels for FCs are very desirable. One of these fuels can be linseed oil. Powering high efficiency power sources (like FCs) with renewable fuels (like linseed oil) will allow development of renewable energy sources and elimination or reduce of toxic substances emissions. The paper presents the research of linseed oil electrooxidation. The work shows possible electrooxidation of linseed oil emulsion (with Syntanol DS-10 detergent) on a smooth electrode (Pt). The maximum current density obtained during the measurements was equal 4 mA·cm−2. Thus, the possibility of using linseed oil to direct electricity production has been proved.
