Sustainable Technology
Every once in a while, a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything.
Wildfires have become an increasingly destructive force, wreaking havoc on communities and natural landscapes worldwide. In response to this escalating crisis, a groundbreaking invention has emerged: a metal spiral wire system designed to prevent the spread of wildfires and protect firefighters on the front lines.
Government across the world is encouraging the research and usage of alternate fuels but there is no testing facility easily available and even very hard one with a jet engine.
To Provide
Portable and easily accessible alternate fuel testing laboratory for engineering colleges and universities,
government labs and research labs.
Nuclear waste disposal has had a direct impact on the United States desire/ability to move forward w/ Nuclear Power. Geothermal Power plant opportunities have been hindered by geological limited areas of availability. There are current projects to create disposal zones of Nuclear waste using canisters loaded and sealed in a well bore into a subsurface geologic column far underground.
For some modern-days applications (as microrobotic [1,2]) there is a need for compact power sources. We suggest a novel approach based on smart low-symmetry materials. They can generate DC and pulsed high voltage without any electronics with versatile power supplies (sunlight, laser, heat/cold, mechanical stress).
My idea is to increase the usability of solar panels when they are covered by shadow ( for instance from another building, a tree or a post that is inconveniently placed.
The unit clips onto the side of a solar panel with the LEDs directed to the area where the shadow falls, and they light up the area,
Wood has long been a cornerstone material in construction and design, yet traditional subtractive manufacturing methods often result in significant wood waste and elevated production costs. In contrast, additive manufacturing reduces material waste and production costs significantly, as it builds structures layer by layer, using only the necessary amount of material.
The project will allow converting low potential thermal energy into mechanical energy and then using mechanical energy to convert it into electric energy. Heat can be obtained from geothermal sources, direct solar heating, wind or any other sources.
Horizontal cupped blades that spin in any direction of wind. When you are not using electricity, (sleeping or at work) the power meter runs backwards and the Electric Power Company pays you when you supply electricity to the grid. No need for hydro poles in rural areas.
